[aprssig] Help setting up Kenwood D700A

[Robbie - WA9INF]

Vic,

Does the display also show that you have BCON enabled? Several times 
friends of mine have run into this situation and then they think to 
enable it, or I remind them, :-)

The display will have a BCON displayed just left of the flashing GPS 
(indicating valid NMEA input)
