Use this format for LT 4:

The result is a position

- BLT: The BLT parameter controls the timing of
when the LT buffers are sent. We can control how often the buffers are
sent, and also when they start.
- BLT 1 E 01:00:00 START 00:00:03 Here we are setting BLT 1 so
that the TNC sends LT 1 (a position report) once every hour.
- BLT 2 E 00:10:00 START 00:04:06 Here we are setting BLT
2 so that the TNC sends LT 2 (a position report) once every 10 minutes at four
minutes and six seconds after start. This will ensure that the position data persists
on the D7 and D700 screens.
- BLT 3 E 00:10:00 START 00:06:09 CLEAR Here we are setting BLT 3 so that the TNC sends LT 3
(weather data) once every 10 minutes starting six minutes nine seconds after
start.. The CLEAR parameter clears the LT buffer as
soon as the buffer is sent. If the buffer is empty, nothing will be
sent. This keeps from sending stale data if something happens to the
incoming weather data stream from the weather station.
- BLT 4 E 00:10:00 START 00:08:11 Here we are setting BLT
4 so that the TNC sends LT 4 (IRLP node data) once every 10
minutes starting eight minutes 11 seconds after start. This will ensure that the
IRLP node data persists on t
