[OZAPRS] SSIDs info

[Geoff - VK2XJG]

Or, if you are using only a GPS and TNC that cannot specifically define a 
symbol, the SSID is used to determine the symbol used as follows:

Other          -0       
Ambulance      -1    
Bus            -2    
Fire Truck     -3    
Bike           -4   
Yacht          -5   
Helicopter     -6   
Light Aircraft -7    
Power Boat     -8
Car            -9
Motorcycle     -10
Balloon        -11
Jeep           -12 
RV (Minibus)   -13 
Truck (4x4)    -14 
Van            -15

Satellite
>  -7  is for TH-D7 walkie talkies
>  -8  is for boats
>  -9  is for Mobiles
>  -11 is for Balloons
>  -14 is for Truckers
