PROGRAMMING A GROUP CODE
Using a group code relieves you from receiving
unwanted packets. The APRS on this transceiver
supports the following three types of group codes.
All calls:
Program a 6-digit code that always starts with AP. You
will receive all APRS packets which include AP in group
codes. It does not matter whether or not the subsequent
4 digits match. The default on this transceiver is
APK001; K001 stands for KENWOOD Ver.1.
Note: APRS packets, which are generated via various methods, include
various codes instead of group codes. Using “All calls” allows you to
receive packets which include the following codes.
Special:
Enter “SPCL”. You will receive only APRS packets that
include SPCL as a group code. This code is generally
programmed by all stations at a special event.
Alternate net:
Program any other code with a maximum of 6 digits.
You will receive only APRS packets that include the
exact same code. In order to reject other packets, this
code should not include characters specified by the
above two types.
