U.S.A./International/Canada Channel Maps
Three sets of VHF Channel Maps have been established for marine use in the U.S.A.,
Canada, and the rest of the world (International). Most of the channels are the same
for all three maps, but there are definite differences (see table in the Appendix).
Your radio has all three maps built into it and will operate correctly in whichever
area you choose.
To Set Channel Map Operating Area:
1. The Channel Map mode is the first mode that begins the
Marine (VHF) Setup programming.
2. U, I and C will display, with the current setting
(the U icon is the default) flashing.
3. Press Channel Up/Down buttons to select the
U, I or C icon.
4. Press Enter/Setup button to save this entry and move to the
next setup programming mode.
