7.10 PA/FOG OPERATION

The GX2200E has a 30W hailer built-in and can be used with any 4 Ohm
PA horn. Standard Horizon offers two HAIL/PA horns, the 220SW (12 cm
round 30 Watt HAIL/PA horn) and the 240SW (13 x 20 cm rectangular 40
Watt HAIL/PA horn). When the GX2200E is in PA Hail mode the PA speaker
listens back (acts as a microphone and provides two-way communications
through the PA horn to the main radio).
When in the PA HAIL or FOG HORN mode, the GX2200E will contin-
ue to receive DSC calls and communications on the last selected
working channel prior to entering the PA HAIL or FOG HORN mode.
Then the GX2200E AIS page can also be accessed when in the PA
HAIL or FOG HORN mode.
PA HAIL mode:
PA HAIL mode allows the transceiver to be used as a power hailer when
an optional STANDARD HORIZON 220SW or 240SW HAIL/PA horn is
installed. The PA Hail mode has a listen-back feature which provides two
way communication through the HAIL/PA horn.
FOG HORN mode:
Automatic signaling is transmitted through the HAIL/PA horn. When the
fog horn, bells or whistle signal is not being outputted the GX2200E
listens back through the connected PA horn.
