APRS (Automatic Packet Reporting System) is a communication system to exchange
GPS location data and packet messages; it was developed and is supported by Bob
Bruninga (WB4APR). Position data may be entered manually in advance or automatically
from the built-in GPS satellite receiver.
When an APRS signal is received from a partner station, the direction, distance, speed
etc. of the partner station as seen from your own station will be shown on the display of
your transceiver.

When operating APRS using the GPS function
When the GPS function is activated, the internal clock setting and location coordinates
of your own station will be acquired from the GPS satellite signals automatically. We
recommend that the GPS function be used in mobile operations.
1 Press and hold the [DISP] key → Touch [APRS] → [20 GPS POWER].
2 Turn the DIAL to select “GPS ON”.
GPS ON: GPS function is usable.
GPS OFF: GPS function is not usable.
Reference Factory shipping value: GPS ON
3 Press the PTT.
To exit the set mode and return to the operating screen.
In order to use the GPS satellite data for your own position information, press and hold
the [DISP] key → Touch [APRS] → [24 MY POSITION] to “GPS”. If [24 MY POSITION],
is set to “Manual”, the coordinates registered in set menu “P1-P10” will be used by your
transceiver for APRS operations, and the acquired GPS data will become invalid.
Tips
• The position GPS coordinates for your own station can be registered in 10 memories (P1 - P10). The
registered coordinates can be set as the position information of your own station (page 58).
• When using the GPS function in APRS operations, be sure to set [APRS] → [24 MY POSITION] to
“GPS”.
• When using the GPS function, the current consumed will increase by about 18 mA. As a result, the
battery standby time is shorter compared to when the GPS function is set to OFF.
When operating APRS without using the GPS function
When operating APRS without using the GPS function, follow the procedure below to
manually set the clock and position information.
y Setting the clock
If the internal clock of this device is set, the time will be reflected in the time display of
the APRS screen. Please refer to “Setting Clock Time” (FT3DR/DE Operating Manual) on
how to set the time.
1 Press and hold the [DISP] key → Touch [APRS] → [21 GPS TIME SET].
2 Turn the DIAL to select “MANUAL”.
3 Press the PTT.
The GPS clock will be set to MANUAL and the set mode
will be cancelled.

Setting your own station call sign
Register your own station call sign in order to send and receive messages and to transmit
beacons in APRS. Enter the call sign like “JA1ZRL-7”. The “-7” in the call sign indicates
the SSID (Secondary Station Identifier) of which there are 16 types, including one with no
SSID. Generally, the SSIDs shown in the table below are used in APRS.

Receiving APRS® beacons
FTM-400D 04/07
This sets the operating frequency of the APRS before receiving a beacon.
Setting the APRS operating frequency
The customary APRS operating frequency differs depending on the region and country.
In the USA, the usual operating frequency is 144.39 MHz. Therefore, to begin APRS
operations set the Band B frequency to 144.39 MHz.
1 Press the [A/B] key
Switch the operating band to Band B.
The APRS will operate only in Band B. Check that A12 (1200bps) or A96 (9600bps) is
