MAKING A TRANSMISSION
To transmit while in any mode, select the channel you want to transmit on, and then press
and hold the
Push-to-Talk
key on the microphone while talking. When you are finished
talking, release the
Push-to-Talk
key to listen for a response.
x
For the best sound quality, hold the microphone about
two inches away from your mouth.
x
To prevent stuck microphone problems or situations
where the
Push-to-Talk
key is pushed accidentally,
the radio limits your talk time to 5 minutes in a single
transmission.
In most situations, 1W transmission power is all you need.
If you are far away from other ships, you may need to
increase the transmission power.
To change the power level for the current channel
transmission, press the
H/L
soft key. The TX output power
changes from 25W to 1W, then back again to 25W. The
transmit power remains at the new setting on that channel
until you change it again.
TO USE THE INTERCOM:
Your radio's intercom function allows you to communicate hands free in order to respond
to an incoming transmission (requires a connected UMRMIC):
1. Press the
INTCOM
soft key. The radio displays INTERCOM IDLE.
2. To page the other party press and hold the
INTCOM
soft key. The radio displays
INTERCOM PAGING and will send the page tone (two beep tones) to the other party.
Note: Some channels (for example, channels 13 and 67) limit the transmission power to 1W. If
you try to change transmission power output but the channel is only 1W, the radio sounds
an error tone and stays at 1W.
