Transmitting D-PRS data
When D-PRS is selected as the GPS TX mode, you
can transmit D-PRS data. When operating in the
D-PRS mode, the following codes are transmitted to
the PC. D-PRS code is based on APRS
®
code.
(APRS
®
: Automatic Packet Reporting System)

D-PRS
D-STAR Packet Reporting System (D-PRS) is a mode
that simultaneously sends position data received from
the internal GPS receiver, using the slow speed data
packet space, along with voice audio in the DV mode.
In the Analog mode, you can transmit or receive only
voice audio or data at one time. However, a D-PRS
capable radio can transmit or receive message data
or GPS position data at the same time voice is being
transmitted or received. An I-GATE is required to send
position data to the APRS server.
NOTE:
•
If “Position Input” is set to “Manual,” the manually
entered position data in “Manual Position” is changed to
the D-PRS data format to transmit.
