What is the GM Function? The GM (Group Monitor) function automatically monitors on the same frequency for any other stations with the GM function in operation, or stations operating in DN mode, within communication range. The GM function then displays the acquired direction and distance information for each detected call sign on the screen.

Display the APL (Automatic Position Locating) screen The positions of up to four group stations are displayed on the APL (Automatic Position Locating) screen, centered on your own station. The direction and progress of each sta- tion is displayed, and you can check each other's position, distance, and moving direc- tion.
Confirm the location of a Group Member station in real time The position of the selected member can be confirmed in real time on the compass screen. The member's current position may be registered as the navigation destination. Display the position of the member station on the compass screen 1.
