GX1270S Owners Manual page 50
Prior to making contact with another vessel, refer to the channel charts in
this manual, and select an appropriate channel for communications after
initial contact. For example, Channels 68 and 69 of the U.S. VHF Charts
are some of the channels available to non-commercial (recreational)
boaters. Monitor your desired channel in advance to make sure you will not
be interrupting other traffic, and then go back to either channel 16 or 9 for
your initial contact.
When the hailing channel (16 or 9) is clear, state the name of the other
vessel you wish to call and then
this is
followed by the name of your
vessel and your Station License (Call Sign). When the other vessel returns
your call, immediately request another channel by saying
go to
, the
number of the other channel, and "over." Then switch to the new channel.
When the new channel is not busy, call the other vessel.
After a transmission, say
over
, and release the microphone's push-to-
talk (PTT) switch. When all communication with the other vessel is
completed, end the last transmission by stating your Call Sign and the word
out
. Note that it is not necessary to state your Call Sign with each
transmission, only at the beginning and end of the contact.
Remember to return to Channel 16 when not using another channel. Some
radios automatically monitor Channel 16 even when set to other channels
or when scanning; see your Owner's Manual.

channels on the channel charts in
this manual. Some examples for USA use are Channels 24, 25, 26, 27, 28,
84, 85, 86, and 87. Call the marine operator and identify yourself by your
vessel's name, The marine operator will then ask you how you will pay for
the call (telephone credit card, collect, etc.) and then link your radio
transmission to the telephone lines.
The marine telephone company managing the VHF channel you are using
may charge a link-up fee in addition to the cost of the call.
