After sending the distress alert, wait for an acknowledgement.
The radiotelephone can be used to communicate even while waiting for an acknowledgement on the screen
below left. When an acknowledgement is received, press the CANCEL key or ENT to cancel the alert on the
below right screen, and communicate with the station. Unless an acknowledgement is received or the
distress alert is cancelled manually, the equipment repeats the distress alert every 3.5 to 4.5 minutes.
