INDIVIDUAL CALL

This feature allows the GX2200E to contact another vessel with a DSC VHF
radio and automatically switch the receiving radio to a desired communica-
tions channel. This feature is similar to calling a vessel on CH16 and request-
ing to go to another channel (switching to the channel is private between the
two stations). Up to 80 individual contacts may be programmed.

8.5.1 Setting up the Individual / Position Call Directory

The GX2200E has a DSC directory that allows you to store a vessel or
person's name and the MMSI (Maritime Mobile Service Identity Number)
number associated with vessels you wish to transmit individual calls, auto
polling, position request, position report, and polling transmissions.
To transmit an individual call you must program this directory with information
of the persons you wish to call, similar to a cellular phones telephone directory.
