[aprssig] HF packet (Was Re: weak signal ISS packet)

[Lynn W. Deffenbaugh (Mr)]

Right now, APRSISCE/32 uses a single outbound path for packets, 
regardless of the port.  I have some plans to support port-specific 
outbound paths, but in the meantime, I suggest running multiple 
instances with a single port per instance especially if said ports are 
on different bands.

Also currently APRSISCE/32 doesn't track which port copied a station so 
when a message is gated from -IS to RF, it goes out all transmit-enabled 
ports with the (single) configured beacon path. This will also need to 
change to better handle multiple ports in a single instance.
