Types of calls
The table below lists the full range of call types for the HF
SSB series transceivers. For specific call details, see
Chapter 4, Sending calls.
Tone calls and voice calls are factory fitted for all HF SSB
series transceivers. To find out what other call types are fitted
for your transceiver version, see the front of this guide for the
list of fitted transceiver options.
Call types that are not factory fitted are available as
transceiver options that you fit yourself. To fit a call type,
contact Codan for a password that will enable the call type in
your transceiver (refer to the HF SSB transceiver reference
manual, Chapter 7, Password entry to enable transceiver
options).
