7.7.5 Receiving an Individual Call
When receiving an individual call, an acknowledgment must be sent back to the
calling station. The QUANTUM default setting is Automatic, but has a selection
that allows you to manually send a reply before the radio will switch to the re-
quested calling channel. This selection is useful if you want to see who is calling
and requesting you to switch to a channel for communications, similar to caller id
on a cellular phone.
1. When an individual call is received, an individual call
ringing alarm sounds.
The radio automatically (automatic mode selected)
switches to the requested channel.
2. Press any key to stop the alarm.
3. Press the PTT on the mic and talk to the calling ship.
4. Turn the CHANNEL selector knob to see the MMSI
of the vessel calling.
7.7.6 Setting Up the Call Waiting Function
Allows the QUANTUM to be setup to reply (ABLE) or set the radio so it trans-
mits a call that advises the calling vessel the person is UNABLE to reply to the
call at this time. This function is similar to an answering machine. When set up
in UNABLE and a individual call is received the Individual call from the other
vessel is logged in the CALL WAITING directory for you to review and call back
at a later time.
