A Dedicated GPS Receiver for the Kenwood D-710

AuthorDavid Coursey, N5FDL DateSun, November 8, 2009 at 7:20PM

The Green Light Labs GPS-710 is a dedicated GPS receiver designed specifically for the popular Kenwood D-710 radio. It mounts onto the backside of control panel. AES is selling them for $129.99.

This unit is a GPS receiver and obviously has no display. With it, you be able to transmit your position. The D-710 is able to display some APRS information on its display, but no mapping.

If you don’t need/can’t afford a GPS that will display incoming APRS information as waypoints, this seems like a nice, integrated solution.
