Rewind Operation
The radio has a Cobra exclusive playback feature,
Rewind-Say-Again
®
.
This feature allows
you to replay the last 20 seconds of an incoming audio transmission. It also allows you to
record call details including position coordinates, call signs, registration numbers and store
details that will help authorities locate a distressed vessel.
Example 1:
When engine noise, music or conversation creates too much noise to hear an inbound
message clearly, press the
Rewind-Say-Again
®
button to enter the
Rewind-Say-Again
®
menu to be able to hear the message a second time. This feature eliminates asking the
sender to repeat the message.
Example 2:
When listening to an urgent distress of an excited caller with confusing background noise,
press the
Rewind-Say-Again
®
button to enter the
Rewind-Say-Again
®
menu to be able to
hear the message a second time and get lifesaving information.
