Making an ALL SHIPS Call

You can set the radio so it sends a message to all ships. The radio automatically sets
itself to high transmit power when it sends an ALL SHIPS call.
1. Rotate PUSH/SELECT to select DSC CALL, then press PUSH/SELECT to
select it.
2. Rotate PUSH/SELECT to select ALL SHIPS, then press PUSH/SELECT to
select it. A screen appears where you can select the ALL SHIPS call option
(URGENCY or SAFETY) you want to send.
3. Rotate PUSH/SELECT to select the ALL SHIPS call option you want
(URGENCY or SAFETY), then press PUSH/SELECT to select it. A confirmation
screen appears.
4. If the displayed ALL SHIPS call option is correct and you want to send the call,
rotate PUSH/SELECT to select SEND, then press PUSH/SELECT to confirm it.
When the radio transmits the ALL SHIPS call option you selected, it tunes to
Channel 16.
Otherwise, if the displayed ALL SHIPS call option is not correct, rotate PUSH/
SELECT to select CANCEL, then press PUSH/SELECT to confirm it. Then
repeat Steps 2 and 3 to enter the correct ALL SHIPS call option.
If the radio receives an ALL SHIPS call, you see a screen
similar to the following. Both radios automatically tune to
Channel 70 until all data is received, then both radios tune to
Channel 16 for transmissions and replies.
