Received message log
The radio retains two lists of received messages, one for Distress and All Ships
calls, and one for all other calls. Any message which is unread causes an indicator
(a closed envelope - ) to be displayed when the radio is in listening mode.
These lists each retain 20 calls; when a list is full, a new call overwrites the oldest
call in the list.
To read received DSC messages:
1. (In standby screen) press the Menu key.
2. Use the scroll keys to highlight the
Received Messages option in the menu.
3. Press Select.
4. Distress Messages are listed first. If you
wish to read the Distress Messages log, press
Select, otherwise (as in this example) use the
scroll keys to highlight Ordinary Messages.
5. Press Select.
(If no messages are stored the display shows
Log empty.)
6. The number of messages are listed
(maximum 20) together with an indication of
the message to select (and the time and date
that message was received.
Press Read.
7. The details of the call are now displayed. In
this example an Individual call of routine
category was made at 7:52 UTC, the calling
station MMSI was 987654321, and the
working channel is channel 6.
