Is this where the radio knows whether the offset should be positive or
negative depending on where you are on the band?
On my Yaesu FT-411 (an old hand held) this feature is best left off!
It thinks there is a repeater band at about 145MHz as well the the 146-148MHz
group, so it is wrong here in Australia. It also thinks that 147.000 should
have a positive offset, while we use negative offset here in Australia.

Subject: Kenwood TH-D7 Kiss mode ?
Yes it's got Kiss mode but can't say I've tried-it. 9600 baud requires near
full scale RX/TX otherwise it won't play - Yes the radio is worth-it,
particularly with APRS (though this mode is in its real infancy in the UK).
Unfortunately:-
No automatic repeater shift on 70cms.
No CWID with packet (so make sure you're 'already' transmitting every 30
mins).

Hi Bill,
You don't say what model your radio is but I suspect that your software
allows you to program memories with logical names (rather than trying to
remember that a certain frequency is associated with specific repeaters
etc). I don't know about any handhelds that have built-in TNC's (for packet
radio and APRS - Automatic Position Reporting System - other than the
Kenwood THD-7x series (meaning of 'x':- where 'e' is Europe and 'A' is
America).

How are you 'reading' this 'garbled' data. Are you looking-at-it from
another TNC/Terminal softwares monitor screen? If so.. you shouldn't! Try
loading ome APRS software on the 'other' PC with TNC and you will appear
correctly on the map including lat / long and maidenhead locator. APRS uses
its own data standard for positioning info. Normal ASCII representation will
APPEAR garbled (but isn't!).
