How to set-up your Geosat 6 APRS:

The Geosat 6 APRS is defaulted to 9600 BAUD rate. If
your radio device supports 4800 BAUD rate you can
change this setting also on your Geosat 6 APRS in the
APRS options page (Chap VIII). Touch the Options
button in the APSR menu, touch Serial Port and then
choose your option.

Connecting the devices:

Your Geosat 6 APRS is supplied with an APRS cable: the
3 pole end (the one with 2 black rings) goes into the
2.5mm socket of your radio or TNC device.
The 4 pole end (the one with 3 black rings) goes in the
top 2.5 mm I/O socket of the Geosat 6 APRS; make
sure they are really snug in the socket.

For a detailed set-up explanation of the Kenwood TH-
D7, TM-D700, TM-D710 and TH-D72 read Appendix.
