[aprssig] More digis are changing to the new paradigm

This will guarantee several things:

1) the sender will have no idea how far his packets will go

2) the network will always be 100% busy with routine
     lights-are-on-noone-home packets doing nothing

3) The user that needs to get packets from A to B cannot

4) The priority user with a LIVE immediate need cannot
communicate any better than a home station with non
moving beacons.  And he wont have any clue if the system
will deliver his packets too where they need to go right-now.

5) The network becomes completely indeterminant.

6) The network is extremely dependent on sysop-hands
on-tweaking to do anyting other than "routine".  And
experience shows that getting a SYSOP to make real
time changes in some areas takes not just hours, but
months.

Good luck.
