[OZAPRS] Working ISS & PCSAT

To cover all possibilities with ground station configurations the
Recommended path for ISS is;

UNPROTO APRS via ARISS,SGATE,WIDE2-1

If you run a Kenwood use the path setting of;
ARISS,SGATE,WIDE2-1

For UI-View the Unproto Address would be;
APRS,ARISS,SGATE,WIDE2-1

These will work for any APRS Satellite that supports the ARISS alias for
digipeating.

IF the APRS Satellite supports a different alias remove ARISS and replace
it
with the recommended one for the APRS Satellite you are using.

Cheers
