Awesome treatise on APRS for the FTM-200. A question about APRS SSID, can it be changed, or whatever you register with, you're stuck with it? I'm base now, but when the weather breaks, I'm going man portable. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Great info, Just one thing, I followed your guide and I got tx-inhibit, I had to change menu 93 (my position set) to manual for it to work, all other settings are the same as yours, any idea why It refuses to TX when set to GPS, same FTM-200D radio you're using. Cheers
Thank you for all ur videos I’ve learned a lot from ur videos and ur one of the reasons I went with the ft5 and ftm300 I have a ? Can u use the 200 as a wires x node like the 300 thinking of getting one to run as a full time node but haven’t seen much on it thank you again KE8WAX 73s
