Standby/Receive and Transmit
Marine Standby and Receive (Rx) Mode
Marine Standby mode is the default mode for the radio whenever it is turned on.
From this mode, you can change current settings by becoming familiar with the
different key functions in Marine Standby mode. While in Marine Standby mode,
the user will be able to transmit by pressing the Push to Talk (Talk) button. Signals in
Receive (Rx) mode will be received on the selected channel(s).
NOTE
Coastguard alerts are broadcast on Channel 16. While in Marine Standby mode,
you will receive any messages sent on the channel to which you are tuned.
Transmit (Tx) Mode
Transmit (Tx) mode gives you the ability to interact with
safety services, other vessels and shore stations. When you
use this capability, be sure to follow the procedures and to
observe the courtesies that govern its use so everyone
benefits. See Appendix to help you select the proper channels.
To Transmit a Message:
1. Check to see that your radio is set to a proper channel
for the type of message you plan to send.
2. Toggle to the Low Power setting.
3. With the microphone about 5.0 cm [2 in.] from your
mouth, press and hold the Talk button and speak into
the microphone. The Transmit icon will appear on
the LCD.
4. Release the Talk button when you are finished
speaking. Your radio can only operate in either
Transmit (Tx) or Receive (Rx) mode at any given time.
You will not hear the response to your message unless
the Talk button is released. If the Battery Power icon
begins blinking on the LCD when the Talk button is
pressed, the radio will NOT transmit.
NOTE
If the Talk button is held down for five (5) minutes,
the radio will automatically sound a series of beeps
and cease transmitting to prevent unwanted signal
generation and battery drain. As soon as the Talk
button is released, it can be pressed again to
resume transmission.
