D Test Call
Testing on the exclusive DSC distress and safety calling chan-
nels should be avoided as much as possible by using other
methods. When testing on the distress/safety channel is una
-
voidable, it should be indicated that these are test transmissions.
Normally the test call would require no further communica-
tions between the two stations involved.
q Push [MENU] to enter the DSC menu.
w Push [s] or [t] to select “TEST CALL,” and push [ENT].
e Push [Y] or [Z] to select the desired pre-programmed
coast station address, push
[ENT].
• The ID code must be set in advance. (p. 14)
• After pushing [ENT], Channel 70 is automatically selected and
“READY” appears at the channel comment indicator.
r Push [ENT] to transmit the Test call.
• If Channel 70 is busy, the transceiver stands by until the chan-
nel becomes clear.
t After the Test call has been transmitted, returns to the
normal operation.
