The following setup is described using the Yaesu FT2D's menu structure. The
menu structure of your transceiver may be different, but the names of the
settings should be the same or similar.
Enabling the GPS receiver
Go to DISP > APRS® > GPS POWER and select ON.
Enabling GPS data sending during voice calls
Go to DISP > TX/RX > DIGITAL > LOCATION SERVICE and select ON.
Now your radio will transmit location information during your calls if it has a
GPS fix and you hold the PTT for at least 2-3 seconds. The openSPOT4 will
automatically set an SSID and symbol for location reports based on the
transceiver type in the received location data.
Advanced settings
If you want to select your own APRS® symbol, SSID and comment for your
transceiver then enable
