      General information on how this form works.
      Enter a Digi Call Sign. The UPDATE button becomes active.
      Click on the UPDATE Button. The entered Digi Call Sign is shown in the Path Label Box.
      The UPDATE Button becomes inactive. Continue entering Digi Call Signs
      or click on a Path Option Button until the Unproto Path you want
      is diaplayed in the Path Label Box. Once the Path Label Box contains the Path
      you want click on the OK Button. The ADD Path Form will Disapear and your new Path
      will be added to the Default Unproto Path Drop Down List Box located on the
      Setup/Station Tab.
      Note to make this new Path active in APRS-SCS you have to select it on the
      Default Unproto Path Drop Down List Box.

      Some notes about the Digi Call Sign text Box
      You can enter as many Digi Call Signs as you want up to 8 total.
      This 8 total limination includes any WIDEN-N digi's you enter.
      This limination is an AX25 limination and has nothing to do with APRS or APRS-SCS.
      Note due to the four rules APRS-SCS limits you to a max of 4 hops if you are using WIDEN-N.
      But you can have up to 8 hops if Digi Call Signs are used.
