I bought this thinking it was a simple ship to shore to call bridges on the ICVW. How do I call on for example, Channel 9?

To call on Channel 9 using the Icom IC-V86, follow these steps:

1. Turn on the transceiver.
2. Push [VFO/MR/CALL] several times to select the memory mode.
3. Use [Y] or [Z] to navigate to Channel 9.
4. Press and hold the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button to transmit.
5. Release the PTT button to listen.

This will allow you to call on Channel 9.
