APRS supports approximately 200 icons. It allows users

or \). If you select “OTHERS” in step 3, use the following

Note: Because the icon code table is occasionally revised, download the
latest icon code table from Mr. Bruninga's Web page (http://
web.usna.navy.mil/~bruninga/aprs.html). Click on “DOWNLOAD APRS”
on its home page, then download APRSnnn.zip from the FTP directory
where nnn is a 3-digit number. After uncompressing the zip file, you will
find a created README directory. Open and see Symbols.txt under this
directory.
