## Using APRSdroid with a Kenwood APRS radio (D7x0)
|

|
||||
It is possible to use APRSdroid as the GPS receiver for a Kenwood D7x0 mobile
|
||||
rig. This way, you do not need a dedicated GPS receiver, and you can configure
|
||||
the rig to display received positions on the Android device. To connect the
|
||||
two, you will need a Bluetooth RS232 adapter that you can connect to the D7x0
|
||||
GPS port (2.5mm at the side of the control unit).
|
||||
|
||||
However, APRSdroid will only display information. Own position beacons,
|
||||
Messaging and other APRS functions will not work from APRSdroid. The displayed
|
||||
information only consists of callsigns and positions (you can use the map in
|
||||
that way).
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration of APRSdroid
|
||||
|
||||
You need to set Connection Type to Kenwood GPS port and configure the correct
|
||||
Bluetooth device in the Android preferences.
|
||||
|
||||
Please also set Position Source to SmartBeaconing (or to Periodic GPS Position
|
||||
with "High (always on)" GPS precision). This is required to keep permanent GPS
|
||||
reception for the D7x0.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration of the D7x0
|
||||
|
||||
You need to set the D7x0 to output WAYPOINT data via the GPS port, with the
|
||||
suggested format being KENWOOD, 9-char:
|
||||
|
||||
It was also reported that the FTM-350 transceiver supports APRSdroid in its
|
||||
"waypoint" mode.
