9.5 INDIVIDUAL CALL
This feature allows the GX1300 to contact another vessel with a DSC VHF
radio and automatically switch the receiving radio to a desired communica-
tions channel. This feature is similar to calling a vessel on CH16 and request-
ing to go to another channel (switching to the channel is private between the
two stations).
9.5.1 Setting up the Individual / Position Call Directory
The GX1300 has a DSC directory that allows you to store a vessel or
person’s name and the MMSI (Maritime Mobile Service Identity Number)
number associated with vessels you wish to transmit individual calls, position
requests and position report transmissions. The GX1300 can store up to 60
individual MMSI numbers with vessel's or person's names.
To transmit an Individual call you must program this directory with the infor-
mation of the persons you wish to call, similar to a cellular phones directory.
