I have implemented this. It happens that quite a lot of the PC12s hit 
GB7DJK before the relevant PC93s, which does not help.

I have also prevented PC93 being downgraded to PC12 in group mode 
because it appears that quite a lot of node software out there does not 
understand PC12 and groups.

WHICH MAKES THIS AN IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!

I can't do this as I know that several of the nodes that connect to me 
have hop overrides active. Actually GB7DJK has a hop override.

What I have done is increase the default dup age from 5 hours to 18 hours.

Oh and I have also included the CTY-2009 prefix update.

And there is a small bug fix on PC92 A records for outgoing node connects.

PLEASE upgrade via git pull/cvs update A S A P
