Sending An Individual Call - Standard Horizon SPECTRUM GX2350S Owner's Manual

6.4 SENDING AN INDIVIDUAL CALL

This feature allows the user to contact another user using DSC and to
automatically switch the receiving DSC radio to a desired working channel.
This feature is similar to calling a vessel on CH16 and requesting to go to a
weather channel. To send an individual call, see section 7.4 INDIVIDUAL
DIRECTORY SETUP. The individual call function allows you to transmit a
DSC signal to a specific party only, prompting communication on a voice
channel.
