[aprssig] New MSG-OBJ format (rev b)

[Lynn W. Deffenbaugh (Mr)]

Good catch Andre!  That was absolutely my intention when suggesting 
making the symbol omittable.  No special characters to type and no 
table/symbol characters to remember.  Put an X on the map with just:

OBJECT   :NEWOBJECT This is a simple X object
