Great video Don well done!

One question is it possible when sending a message to get the radio to only send it once rather then 4 times as default? I have a application were I only really need the message sent once.

Thanks Mal - VK2MAL

Nice video.thanks for posting. My 72a will communicate with other close stations, but I never seem to show up no the APRS.fi site. Maybe I am too far away from any other connected stations?

Thanks for this! Just got my 72 and this was a great introduction to the menu system. The digit system is real nice. So much easier to spell out the menu location like 201 than spelling out the words. - 73 Sander KB1WCY

Thank You - for the very simple but effective presentation. I just got on the map.

I doooo read manuals but there was not the type of practical information that you provided. I wish Kenwood would realize the value of videos like yours to make users successful faster. Successful users influence new sales. More please KE7YK. Look me up on aprs.fi

Great video. I'd like to see another video of the unit in action between the APRS and using voice on another freq on B side or A side, depending on which side the user perfers to have APRS listed and voice.
