6.19 ENABLING S.O.S STROBE OPERATION

The S.O.S. STROBE feature utilizes the high-intensity strobe LED on the front
of the HX750S as a visual distress beacon. When enabled, the LED blinks the
internationally-recognized Morse Code "S.O.S." message ( ... --- ... ) at a rate of
5 words per minute. This can be very useful in summoning help from rescuers
who may not be able to communicate with you via radio.

flash the Morse Code S.O.S. message repeatedly.
2. The S.O.S. strobe function is interrupted when a signal is received or if the
squelch control is turned so audio is heard from the speaker.
3. To disable the S.O.S. strobe function, turn the radio off and back on again.
