RESTRICTING RECEPTION OF APRS DATA
If APRS is popular in your area, you may receive too
many APRS packets for a short period. If this disturbs
your APRS activities, specify a distance from your
location. You will not receive APRS packets from
stations beyond this distance.
Access Menu 3–7 (POSITION LIMIT) and select the
range from 10 to 2500 in steps of 10, plus OFF (default).
The unit is mile or kilometer depending on the selection
in Menu 3–G (MILE/KILOMETER) {page 16}.
PROGRAMMING POSITION AMBIGUITY
There may be cases where you do not know or do not
want to report your precise locations. For position data,
you can select the number of digits not to be included in
your packets. Access Menu 3–5 (POS AMBIGUITY) and
select 1 to 4, or OFF (default). The table shows how the
digits are cleared.
