The DSC CALLING Page can be selected using the PAGE button which is
generally used to scroll through all available pages: this is possible only if the
DSC CALLING Page is turned ON in the “PAGES ON/OFF” menu (see Par.

When the device is properly connected to a VHF radio, it is possible to receive
any DSC distress call within a range. When a call is received an alert
message appears at the VHF DSC CALLING Page.
All the received calls are sorted by date and time. It is possible to select the
whole line with the UP and DOWN CURSOR buttons. After selection the on-
