Yes, Kenwood made the radios virtually the same so
setup is nearly identical. And by putting APRS in
band A on the D7 then you can use the all-band
receiver on band B much more flexibly than A. So
always set band A for APRS. Then band B can tune
everything.
With only one exception. If you have to tune in
the AIRCRAFT AM band, is the only thing that
band A can do that B cannot. But there are all
kinds of things that B can do that A cannot. SO
except for the one exception above, it makes
little sense to waste band B on APRS.
And no, there is no speciifc file for the D7 since
they are so similar (thought maybe I should
add that in it.. thanks)
