IGIPEATER OUTE
The FTM-350 Series transceiver allows you to set up to eight digipeaters for the APRS
Packet Path.
The FTM-350 Series transceiver is preset to "WIDE1-1" and "WIDE1-1, WIDE2-1" digi-
path to insure that your transmitted APRS Beacon is repeated by the new-N paradigm
digipeaters. We recommend that you use this setting by default.
1. Press the [ SET ] key to enter the Set Mode.
2. Rotate the left side [ DIAL ] knob to select
"APRS/PKT" group, then press the left
side [ DIAL ] knob.
3. Rotate the left side [ DIAL ] knob to select
Set Mode item "E20 DIGI PATH SE-
LECT", then press the left side [ DIAL ] knob to enable selection of this Set Mode item.
4. Rotate the left side [ DIAL ] knob to select the desired Path Route.
5. Press the left side [ DIAL ] knob to save the new setting, then press the [ ESC ] key two
times to exit from Set Mode.

The default setting (WIDE1-1, WIDE2 -1) is the value assumed for the popular New-
N Paradigm system that is most often used. The first digipeater relays the APRS signal
according to the setting of the WIDE1-1, and then the second digipeater relays the
APRS signal according to setting of the WIDE2-1. Visit the http://www.aprs.org/
fix14439.html website to learn more about the new-N paradigm system (APRS and
digipeater path settings).
If you want to use another repeating system, select the desired pass route (PATH 1 -
PATH 4, FULL 1, or FULL 2), then input the Callsign or Alias of that digipeater (refer
to the next chapter).
