Proposed TOCALL allocation for WeeWX weather station software

[W0CHP]

I am proposing that the popular WeeWX weather software has a TOCALL allocation:

- tocall: APWX??
  vendor: Tom Keffer and Matthew Wall
  model: WeeWX Weather Software
  class: software
  os: Linux/Unix

The goal is to replace the existing TOCALL packet preamble in WeeWX from APRS to APWX??: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/blob/7024f046cffcff145af4e195cefc18f9c08cd3fb/bin/weewx/restx.py#L1231

Hi,

Sorry for the terribly long delay. Allocated APWX?? to WeeWX. I run it too at one location.

Can you do the PR for WeeWX to use the new prefix?

Sorry, decided to reallocate from APWX?? to APWEE? to make it a 5-letter prefix. We only have 676 4-letter prefixes in the AP?? space available.
