    New Firmware for Kenwood TM-D710

    Perhaps disable your anti virus program for a short time whilst disconnected from the internet. Then install the new MCP-2A. Other wise, if you use the old MCP-2A you will not have the new features when editing the database of the D710 whilst the D710 is up to date. In other words, your...

    TH-D72A GPS Question

    I have the TH-D72 but have no audible tones when GPS has a position fix. Can you tell me where I can turn those tones on and I will give this a test also. Cheers, Gerard VK2JNG

    TH-D72 & ISS

    Duncan, You have the right settings to access ISS via APRS. I did it this morning (Sat 05/03/11) when we had an excellent overpass here in NSW. I got in with the standard rubber duck type antenna using 5W and got the "My position Via RS0ISS" back. Great fun. Gerard VK2JNG :thumbup:

    Help debugging Kenwood TM-D710a dropout issue

    When the Kenwood transmit a beacon from the A-side, then the B-side is shut down for a short period for obvious reasons. I have two TM-D710's and they both do it as well as others I have seen. Hope this helps, Gerard VK2JNG

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review Summary

    Hi Moleculo, The HT I use is the Kenwood TH-F7. I do not use Sky Command. I just put the 710 in CrossBand mode with a UHF simplex frequency on one side and the Local repeater 2m on the other side. That way I can wander around as I like and always have a good copy of the repeater...

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review Summary

    You are correct. The Kenwood operates well in CrossBand mode. I use it all the time where I can have my HT on 50mW linking to the 710 into our local repeater. Gerard VK2JNG

    Future APRS radios displayed on FTM350

    Ok, What I meant was this: When a tm-D700 beacons and this is received by a TM-D710 then the 710 shows that the beacon originated from the 700. Also, when a 710 beacons then another 710 receiving this beacon will show that it originated from a 710. Further when a Yaesu VR-8 HT beacons...
