-On version 2, aprx has gotten the ability to do APRS Digipeater function,
-Aprx Tx-iGate, as well as a variation of that called Viscous APRS Digipeater,
-which is an excellent choice for a Fill-In digipeater like on a mobile
-station. Viscousness means that it will listen for other copies of same
-packet for a small configurable number of seconds, and if it hears same
-packet only once, it will do normal digipeating for it.
