sign, but are in a situation that makes it difficult to
operate the transceiver, this function automatically
replies with your own call sign and transmits your
position data.
After receiving the Auto Position Reply call, the caller's
position data is displayed in a window.
L Only the Icom transceivers, ID-4100A/E, ID-
5100A/E, ID-51A/E PLUS, or ID-51A/E PLUS2,

When no valid position data is received
After receiving a call addressed to your own call sign,
the internal GPS receiver is temporarily turned ON for
approximately 5 minutes to receive your position data,
even if "GPS Select" is set to "OFF," "External GPS,"
or "Manual." Then, the transceiver automatically
replies with a message, as described below.
L When the internal GPS receiver is temporarily ON, and
valid position data is received, the transceiver transmits
your position data if a call addressed to your own call
sign is received again.
