For example, WIDE2-2 becomes WIDE2-1 which becomes WIDE2-0 as a
packet passes through 3 successive digis. <br>

A bit nit-picking here, but I count only TWO digis in the example.
The first hears the WIDE2-2 and transmits a WIDE2-1. The second
hears the WIDE2-1 and transmits the WIDE2-0 which is more commonly
shown as WIDE2 (lack of a -SSID implies -0). In addition, the
second digi should also set the "used" bit in the AX.25 header
because it decremented to zero which is typically then shown as
WIDE2*.<br>
