How to configure the Kenwood TM-D710G for APRS

Here's a no-frills walkthrough of all of the configuration options that need to be set to get APRS up and running on your Kenwood TM-D710G. This video covers this specific radio, but the configuration options are the same for most other APRS radios, although the location of where to change the settings will be different. I give a bit of a contextual explanation about many of the settings as well
