CALL PROCEDURE
D Individual call operation-- continued
i When receiving an acknowledgement, the display shows the received ID code, or the called station name.
· Push [FREQ/CH]; - to select the traffic frequency if the called station is able to comply to the call. - to return to DSC watch mode when unable.
************************ Individual ACK * * * IC-M801 * Able to comply * * ************************ Exit
CONVENIENT!You can store often used DSC calling conditions for quick and simple re-call. Up to 10 conditions can be stored into the memory with the following instructions.
¡ When call stand-by screen is displayed as in step y in page 21, push and hold [ENT] for 1 sec. TM Rotate [CH] to select the desired TX memory channel number.

When the called station is unable to comply to the call, the reason may be displayed.
o Announce the following message to the connected station. - The 9-digit identity (or call sign or other identification) of the station which you want to call. (your ship name). " - The 9-digit identity OR call sign (or other identification of the ship). When no acknowledgement is received: z Wait for 5 min. , then call again on the same or a different frequency. x If no acknowledgement is received after a 2nd call, wait for at least 15 min. before repeating the call.
¢ Push [ENT] to return to the calling stand-by condition.

INFORMATION The IC-M801E will not transmit the DSC call (except emergency call) even [CALL] when the set calling frequency is in busy. The transceiver waits the DSC call transmission until the calling frequency becomes clear in this case.
Push and hold [CALL] for 1 sec. when transmitting the DSC call in set condition, or push [MODE SET] when returning to DSC watch mode.
