One (actually a few) of the repeater objects I beacon are for a
microwave data network. The mode is nv2. I just put "nv2 data" in the
comment.

A symbol for every mode would quickly be overwhelming. (I was going to
say that it would never scale with APRS symbols, but you know, it
might scale okay with overlays. OpenTrac's tree structure would make
this kind of thing more feasible.)
