cancel the distress call, choose Exit and press CLR/SCAN .
reCeiVing a DsC Call
If your radio receives an individual DSC call from another station, it sounds an incoming
call tone and displays the name/MSI number of the station calling you. To respond to the
call, select Send: Able-Comply; the radio sends an acknowledgement and automatically
switches to the designated response channel. To reject the call, select Send: Unable-
Comply; the radio advises the other station that you are unable to respond to the call.
If the DSC request contains a response channel that you are not allowed to use, the
radio displays Not Support CH; your only response option is Send: Unable-Comply.
If the radio receives a group or all ships call, it sounds an incoming call tone and
automatically switches to the designated response channel.
Receive log
Just like your telephone’s caller ID list, your radio keeps track of the calls you receive
but do not answer. The receive log is useful if you have been off your boat or away from
your radio and want to see who has tried to contact you. The radio displays the last 10
distress calls and the last 50 non-distress calls that it received. If you have unread
incoming DSC calls, the radio displays a Message icon. When you display all Distress
and Other receiving logs, the message icon disappears.
