During the satellite search, beep tones will be heard from the
loudspeaker (provided the Tone is ON,
see next page
):
slow intermittent tones when
searching for any satellite.
rapid intermittent tones when
searching for a specific satellite
(faster when searching for a single
satellite).

To find the correct
vertical angle to the
satellite, try with the
antenna adjusted to 60
°
,
30
°
or 0
°
as indicated.

Aim the antenna/lid
towards the estimated
position of satellite
with free line of
sight.
Or make a slow
scan across the
hemisphere.
When receiving a
satellite signal, a short tone
will sound. If it is an Inmarsat
satellite, a continuous tone will sound with varying frequency
(provided the Tone is ON, see next page)
.
The WorldPhone always starts with Tone off and "any satellite"
search. See step 10.
When closing in on a satellite, turning the antenna/lid horizontally and
adjusting its vertical angle, the tone should increase in frequency.
