8 MCP-4A MEMORY CONTROL PROGRAM (FOR USE WITH TH-D72A/E)Only files created for K-type models (USA and Canada) can be imported into MCP-4A. Thereferenced software can be downloaded from the following Kenwood U.S.A. Corporation web site:http://www.kenwoodusa.com/Support/Amateur_Radio/Table 8-3 MCP-4A Importable File Formats Table (K-type only)Software Name andExtensionMCP-G707 (*.707)MCP-V7 (*.v7)MCP-G71 (*.71)TransceiverModelTM-G707ATM-V7ATH-G71ARemarksDedicated only for USA and Canada. Unable to use other than K-type(USA and Canada) of TM-G707 due to command specificationdifferences. DTSS is ignored.Dedicated only for USA and Canada. Unable to use other than K-type(USA and Canada) of TM-V7 due to command specificationdifferences. DTSS is ignored.Dedicated only for USA and Canada. Unable to use other than K-type(USA and Canada) of TH-G71 due to command specificationdifferences.Note: Memory channels that are outside of the receive frequency range of TH-D72A/E cannot be read. With MCP-4A, it is not possible to exchange data between above-mentioned transceivers except TH-D72A/E. MCP-4A cannot read DTMF memory and other menu settings, Although you may be able to import an MCP file type that is not included in the above tables, some data in the file may not beread into the MCP-4A program.8.4 Reading GPS Log DataMCP-4A can read GPS log data recorded on the TH-D72A/E. The read GPS log data can be viewedwith a map software program.This section describes how to read GPS log data.8.4.1 Reading GPS Log Data from TH-D72A/ESelect “Read GPS Logger Data from the Transceiver” from the Program pulldown menu. Data froma GPS Logger and Waypoints can be read. Select the checkbox of the desired data. Pressing the“Read” button will start reading the data. The data is saved as a NMEA file.When the reading is complete, a screen appears to prompt you to select whether or not you want theGPS log data in the transceiver to be deleted. The read data cannot be written onto the transceiveragain.70 CONTENTS TH-D72A/EFrom The N3UJJ.COM Document Library

8 MCP-4A MEMORY CONTROL PROGRAM (FOR USE WITH TH-D72A/E)Figure 8-6 GPS Data Reading Screen8.4.2 Managing the Read GPS Log DataWhen the reading is complete, the PGS log data is saved in NMEA file format in the MCP-4A folder.The GPS Logger window shows the saved NMEA files. The file name is the time and date when thedata is read.Two types of NMEA file are created: a file that contains all the log data read from the transceiver anda file that is divided into blocks. Stop the log to divide the data into blocks, while recording the log onthe transceiver. For example, if you wish to divide the log data into data for outward and return trips,stopping the logging once will divide the data into two blocks.The GPS Logger window allows conversion of NMEA files to KML or GPX files, or deletion of thedata.The GPS Logger window can be opened also from “GPS Logger” in the Tools pulldown menu.Figure 8-7 GPS Logger WindowTH-D72A/E CONTENTS 71From The N3UJJ.COM Document Library
