Transmitting a Test call
D
Testing on the exclusive DSC distress and safety calling chan-
nels should be avoided as much as possible. When testing on

that these are test transmissions.
Normally the test call would require no further communica-
tions between the two stations involved.
Enter “TEST CALL” in the DSC CALLS menu.
