Transmitting D-PRS data

When D-PRS is selected as the GPS TX mode, you

codes are transmitted to the PC.
D-PRS code is based on APRS
(APRS : Automatic Packet Reporting System).

D D-PRS

D-STAR Packet Reporting System (D-PRS) is a mode
that simultaneously sends position data received from
the internal or external GPS receiver, using the slow
speed data packet space, along with voice audio in
the DV mode. In the Analog mode, you can transmit or
receive only voice audio or data at one time. However
a D-PRS capable radio can transmit or receive
message data or GPS position data at the same time
voice is being transmitted or received.
I-GATE is required to send position data to the APRS
server.
