This transceiver is capable of displaying the following
icons as station IDs.
<APRS>

<NAVITRA>

Some icons may appear with overlay characters as below
if the received icon data includes them (APRS only).
Example:

The following icons show the directions of stations relative
to your position.
(North Up)

(Heading Up: example)

• When pressing [F], [N/H] while the target point distance/

traveling direction is displayed, the North Up display(displays
North as the top) changes to the Heading Up display
(displays the current travel direction as the top) or vice-versa.
In the Heading Up display, a “+” or “-” is used to help indicate
the traveling direction.

To change the speed/distance and/or temperature
settings of the units, access Menu 626 (DISPLAY UNIT 1
- SPEED, DISTANCE) and/or Menu 626 (DISPLAY UNIT
1 -TEMPERATURE)

Note: Some stations transmit APRS packets through TNCs
connected to GPS receivers. If you receive packets from those
stations, “GOOD” (satellites tracked) or “LAST” (satellites not tracked)
will be shown as the situation, with GLL, GGA, or RMC which
designates $GPGLL, $GPGGA, or $GPRMC format.
