NOTE:
Set the GSV sentence to OFF when sending the
GPS message to conventional digital transceivers
(IC-2820H, IC-E2820, ID-800H, IC-91AD, IC-E91,
IC-V82, IC-U82, IC-2200H, ID-1).
The GSV sentence is incompatible with them.
Those transceivers will not display GPS messages
properly if a GSV sentence is sent from the ID-
51A/E.
If “GPS select” is set to “Manual, the GPS sentence
is artificially selected and transmitted, according
to the manually set position in “Manual Position.
(p. 16-32)
(MENU > GPS > GPS Set > Manual Position)
If “GPS Auto TX” is set to any other setting than
“OFF, the current position data is transmitted at the
specified interval. (p. 10-24)
(MENU > GPS > GPS Auto TX)
“DV-G” appears if “GPS (DV-
G)” is selected in DV Mode.
