POSITION REPORT
The feature is similar to Position Request, however instead of requesting a
position of another vessel this function allows you to send your position to
another vessel. Your vessel must have an operating GPS receiver connected
for the GX1600 to send the position.
To transmit a Position Report Call, a GPS must be connected to the
radio and the GX1600 Individual directory must be programmed with
stations you wish to send your position to. To setup this directory refer to
section "9.5.1 Setting up the Individual / Position Call Directory."
