SELECTING PACKET TRANSMIT METHOD
Select the operation method for transmitting APRS
packets. The table concludes how operations differ
depending on the selection. Access Menu 3–C
(PACKET TX) and select Manual (default), PTT, or Auto.
SELECTING PACKET TRANSMIT INTERVAL
You can change the interval for automatically
transmitting APRS packets. Access Menu 3–D (TX
INTERVAL) and select 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, or 30
minutes. The default is 3 minutes.
Note:
◆
With “AUTO” in Menu 3–C and Beacon ON, pressing [OK] to
complete the setting causes the APRS packet to be immediately
transmitted. After that, APRS packets are transmitted at intervals of
the selected period.
◆
While signals are present, an APRS packet is not transmitted after
the interval. Approximately 2 seconds after signals drop, transmitting
is executed.
SELECTING STATUS TEXT TRANSMIT RATE
A long status text string can double the size and length
of the APRS packet. Access Menu 3–A and specify how
frequently status text is included in APRS packets to be
transmitted. The selectable range is 1/1 to 1/8 and OFF
(default). If you select 1/3 for example, status text is
included in your packets once every 3 times; accordingly
stations who receive your packets will see your status
text once every 3 times.
