Receiving Individual Calls

When an Individual Call is received, an alert tone sounds, the envelope icon
blinks, and the LCD alternates between a screen displaying the name (or MMSI ID)
of the station initiating the call and one indicating that a request for a change of
working channels is being made. The channel does not change until you accept.
The 2 alternating pages of data are recorded in the Call Log. The envelope icon
( blinks until you accept the call, reject the call, or open the resulting unread
)
message stored in the Log. See page "Received Calls (Logs)" on page 92.
To mute the alert tone:
Press CLEAR/WX. Automatic cancellation takes place after 2 minutes.
To ignore the Individual Call:
Press CLEAR/WX a second time or press the CANCEL soft key. The envelope icon
disappears, the call is interrupted and the normal screen appears on the LCD.
