[aprssig] Further Background and Info on New APRS symbol sets

[Jim Andrews]

UI-View appears to look for mysymb and uses it before the default symbols.

Can't find anything in the documentation about this, but my system seemed to
recognise the existence of mysymb and use it (requires a restart, but that's
logical!).

Thank you Stephen for all the work you've done on APRS symbols. I must confess I
have not followed this thread but I would like to stay 'symbol current'. I have
two questions.

#1) While I am not using UI-VIEW at present I did download
UIview-MySymbols-RevG.zip and had a boo at its contents. What do I do now? I
thought there might be a mysymb file in my UI-VIEW folder to over-write but not
so.

#2 I am using WinAPRS, how do I update its symbol set?
