New Directory Item Page
When a distress call, position report or directory item is named, the
name is attached to that particular MMSI number. If a name is used,
all DSC entries of the same MMSI number show the name.
Another way to input a name is from the Entry Review Page or the
DSC Distress Call or DSC Position Report Pages. The Name and
MMSI are sent to other Garmin GPS units: Only the MMSI numbers
are sent to other non-Garmin DSC users.
