$PMRRV<msg_id><msg_data><chksum><cr>
The checksum is computed by an 8 bit addition of the msg_id and msg_data characters, ignoring carry if
any. The resulting 8 bit checksum is converted to two ASCII characters by taking the upper and lower
nibbles, adding 30h to each, and placing the most significant character first in the data message.

2 = ATS, for ATIS
3 = ATF, air traffic frequency
4 = APP, for approach
5 = ARR, for arrival

mk frequency:
m = desired frequency in MHz in hexadecimal, where m = desired frequency - 30h , with the
desired frequency in the range of 118 to 136 MHz, or 162 MHz.
k = desired frequency in kHz where k = (desired frequency / 25 kHz) + 30h, with the desired
frequency in the range of 000 to 975 kHz in 25 kHz steps, or 0 to 39.
Example Message
$PMRRC0511IT64<cr>
The above example message outputs a ground frequency type, 121.900 MHz.
