stop tracking at any time, just press YES.
3. As soon as you start tracking, an LL Request is sent immediately on CH70 and your
radio; and it waits for acknowledgement of the (rst) buddy’s LL position to be
displayed on your radio screen.
Each of the selected buddies is polled for their LL positions at regular time intervals.
When information is received, a friendly ring tone sounds and the position is shown on
the screen. Pressing any key cancels the screen.
The position that is received is not stored in your radio’s Log, but is broadcast over NMEA
0183 to the chartplotters. Press any key to acknowledge, or wait for the automatic 20
second timeout.
Note: The HH36 is capable of receiving and displaying the LL position data at normal or
enhanced resolution.
