APRS supports approximately 200 icons. It allows users
to select each icon by specifying a combination of two
ASCII codes, for example, / and !. One is a symbol
code, and the other is a table identification code (either /
or \). If you select "OTHERS" in step 3, use the following
procedures:
4 Press [UP]/ [DWN] to select a symbol code, then
press [OK].
5 Press [UP]/ [DWN] to select a table identification
code, then press [OK].
• For icons that can include overlay characters, 0 ~ 9 and
A ~ Z are also selectable.
6 Press [MENU] to exit Menu mode.
Note: Because the icon code table is occasionally revised,
download the latest icon code table from Mr. Bruninga's Web page
(http://web.usna.navy.mil/~bruninga/aprs.html). Click on
"DOWNLOAD APRS" on its home page, then download APRSnnn.zip
from the FTP directory where nnn is a 3-digit number. After
uncompressing the zip file, you will find a created README
directory. Open and see Symbols.txt under this directory.
