[aprssig] APRS+SA 2.27 vs Findu VX8 packet another update

[Mark Earle]

Further: now that he has moved near NW Houston, the character is { vs |

It now copies and pastes:

KC5EVE>RYUT2P,WIDE1-1,WIDE2-2,qAR,AD5OU-1:`{@.sS8j/`"49}VX-8.Mobile_ <-- 
tcp tab 10:48aC
KC5EVE>RYUT2P,WIDE1-1,WIDE2-2,qAR,AD5OU-1:`{@.sS8j/`"49}VX-8.Mobile_ <-- 
findu

However, the program still is not displaying or mapping kc5eve on any 
other tab.
