# APRS Symbols

When registering a call sign with the Gateway, it is often desirable to also
set the symbol that will represent the device on various applications and maps
(e.g., [APRS.fi](https://https://aprs.fi/).

Each symbol is represented by a 2- or 3-letter code, as outlined in the tables below.

If the symbol is simple, it will use a two letter code, as listed in the [first table](#simple-symbols).
For example, `HS` will map to `Human`. You can set this symbol when registering
(or re-registering) with the gateway. E.g.,

```
!register <call sign> <symbol>
```

```
!register N0CALL-1 HS
```

You can also set various composite overlay symbols with a 3-letter code, as per the
[second table](#overlay-symbols) below. In this case, the first two letters define the symbol, and the
third letter defines the overlay (must be A-Z or 0-9). For example 'OGM' represents
a gateway station (diamond) with the letter M overlaid.

```
!register <call sign> <symbol_and_overlay>
```

```
!register N0CALL-1 OGM
```
