Weather Features

WX Alert Decode Mode - You can set your radio to monitor a selected weather radio channel
for weather emergency signals or SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding) alerts for areas
you specify. This lets you receive early warning when bad weather is in the area or a national,
regional, or local emergency has been detected.
FIPS Code Programming - You can program your radio with up to 30 FIPS (Federal
Information Processing Standard) codes for the areas you desire. If the radio receives a SAME
alert tone, it checks it against the FIPS codes you programmed and alerts you if it finds a
match.

DSC Features

DSC Call - You can use the radio to transmit and receive DSC Call information. See "Using
the DSC Call Menu" on Page 25 for more information about DSC Call.
DSC Directory - You can set up a directory of other vessels that have a DSC-capable radio
with a Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number.
Auto Channel Switch Disable - You can set the radio so it does not automatically change
the channel when it receives a DSC Call. The radio automatically sends a signal to the
calling vessel that shows that your vessel's radio is unattended, and does not tune to the
requested channel.

Optional Features

Scrambler - If you install an optional scrambler board in the radio, you can set the radio so it
scrambles your voice when you transmit, helping you avoid being overheard by other
vessels.
Hailer Features - You can use these features if you connect an optional hail horn to the
radio.
