[Xastir] Digipeating

[Dennis Hudson, N2LBT]

If you're thinking about this setup I would recommend you look at 
javAPRSIGate and javAPRSDigi adjuncts for the javAPRSSrvr suite.

JavAPRSSrvr suite provides all the features many dedicated igate 
operators have been longing for. Stability, multi-platform 
compatibility (ie, windows if you must), low system resource usage, 
multiple port configurations, dynamic gate path selection, user 
selectable gate path routing, non authenticated routing, advanced dupe 
detection. All in a simple to install Java jar file. JavAPRSSrvr is in 
heavy development, and new features are being added frequently.
