7.14 DSC SCANNING
The radios software has been updated to improve DSC Channel 70
SCANNING:
1. When a DSC call is received the radio will only show Channel 70 on
the display if the call was directed to the radios MMSI or if it is a
Distress or All ships DSC call.
2. Selection to turn ON or OFF the DSC SCAN function.
When the radio is shipped from the factory it is programmed so CH70 (the
DSC channel) is scanned at all times. A selection has been added to the
SETUP MENU in the radio to disable the DSC SCAN. However, turning off
DSC SCAN will disable the radio from receiving DSC calls i.e.: Individual
Call, All Ships Call, Distress Call and Position Requests. If you want to use
any of the functions the selection should be left ON.
