8. Select appropriate NCS (Auto, AOR-West, AOR-East, POR or

IOR) by arrow keys. The FELCOM 12 will search for that NCS
signal each time it is turned on. The Auto setting searches all NCS
signals to find the most suitable NCS; thus, scanning can take
quite some time. (For reference, the coverage range of each satel-
lite is shown in the figure on page 8.)
If you want to change the NCS channel temporarily, refer to “Se-
lecting NCS channel” on page 7-4.
