10.3.3 Menu Settings - APRS 1
APRS Beacon - The Automatic Packet Reporting Systems was
designed to support rapid, reliable exchange of information for local, tactical real-time
information, events or nets. All relevant information is transmitted immediately to
everyone in the net and every station captures that information for consistent and
standard display to all participants. Since the primary objective is consistent exchange
of information between everyone, APRS established standard formats not only for the
transmission of POSITION, STATUS, MESSAGES, and QUERIES, it also establishes
guidelines for display so that users of different systems will still see the same consistent
information displayed in a consistent manner (independent of the particular display or
mapping system in use).
Included here are brief descriptions of the features to be controlled and how to set them
in the Programmer. The operating manual of the radio should be used to provide any
other explanation of the feature and its use after programming.
My Callsign - Program your callsign using a maximum of 9 alphanumeric characters.
You may include SSID characters in the string. You cannot send any data using
NOCALL.
Note: Refer to the website for SSID: http://aprs.org/aprs11/SSIDs.txt
Beacon Type - select APRS data format (APRS or NAVITRA) for sending.
Internal TNC Settings - The TH-D72 has a built-in TNC
(Terminal Node
Controller) modem in the transceiver for packet communication. The embedded
microcomputer supports not only the radio functions, but also data communication
application programs such as APRS.
Note: Close distance between the radio antenna and personal
computer may cause interferences.
