■ Position and Time indication
When a GPS receiver (NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01) is con-
nected, the transceiver displays the current position and
time. When no GPS receiver is connected, the transceiver

from Icom. A GPS receiver with NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01
format is required for position and time indication. Ask your
dealer about suitable GPS receivers.
