SSID (Default: ---) GPS > GPS TX Mode > D-PRS > TX Format > Object > SSID Select an SSID based on APRS® to add to your call sign, to show your operating style to other stations. The addition methods of the SSID may differ, depending on whether the call sign includes a space or not. • ---: The space in the call sign is converted to "-." If no text is programmed after the space, the space will be deleted, and the space is not converted to "-." Example: "JA3YUA" ➡ "JA3YUA" "JA3YUA A" ➡ "JA3YUA-A" • (-0): No SSID is added. If a call sign includes a space, any text or digit after the space will be deleted. Example: "JA3YUA" ➡ "JA3YUA" "JA3YUA A" ➡ "JA3YUA" • -1 to -15:Adds an SSID of -1 to -15 to the call sign. If a call sign includes a space, it will be auto- matically changed to this set numeric ID. Example (SSID [-9]): "JA3YUA" ➡ "JA3YUA-9" "JA3YUA A" ➡ "JA3YUA-9" • -A to -Z: Adds an SSID of -A to -Z to your call sign. If a call sign includes a space, it will be auto- matically changed to this set letter ID. Example (SSID [-Z]): "JA3YUA" ➡ "JA3YUA-Z" "JA3YUA A" ➡ "JA3YUA-Z" About SSID To assist in identifying a station's type, designated call sign SSIDs are used in D-PRS (APRS®), according to the common guideline. The guideline may be changed when the infrastructure environment, such as a product or network, is changed. Please check the latest guideline in the web site related on the D-PRS or APRS®, and correctly set. Time Stamp (Default: DHM) GPS > GPS TX Mode > D-PRS > TX Format > Object > Time Stamp Sets the transmitting time stamp type to DHM or HMS. The time stamp is transmitted in addition to the position data in the D-PRS mode, and UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) time is used. • DHM: T ransmits the time stamp in the Day, Hour, and Minute format. • HMS: Transmits the time stamp in the Hour, Minute, and Second format. 12-26
