CONNECTING WITH A GPS RECEIVER
The GPS jack on this transceiver accepts a 2.5 mm (1/10")
3-conductor plug. If necessary, use the supplied cable to
modify the cable end of your GPS receiver.
If using a GARMIN GPS receiver, select the following
parameters in the “INTERFACE” sub-menu on the
receiver.
• NMEA/NMEA
• NMEA 0183 2.0
• 4800 baud
In order to use the connected GPS receiver, access
Menu 3–2 (GPS UNIT) to select “NMEA” or “NMEA96”.
The default is “NOT USED”. Select “NMEA96” when
using a 9600 bps GPS receiver.
• When in APRS mode, “GPS” will appear on the restored
frequency display to indicate the setting of “NMEA” or
“NMEA96”. “GPS” blinks while measurement is being
executed.
Note: When using a GPS receiver with “AUTO” selected in Menu 3–C
(PACKET TX), this transceiver transmits an APRS packet for the first time
after any NMEA data is received.
