Position Reply

This option enables you to determine how your radio responds to a request
for your GPS position information (lat/lon) from another station.

To enable/disable Position Reply:

1. From the

DSC SETUP menu item described on page 71, rotate the CH knob

until the arrow points to

POS REPLY.

2. Press the

CH knob to accept.

3. Rotate the

CH knob to select the desired setting and push to accept.

AUTOMATIC sends out your vessel’s position data as soon as it is requested.
MANUAL sends out the data only after you respond to the request.
OFF will not send position data under any circumstances, nor notify you that
the request has been made.

The default setting is

MANUAL, which is described in Receiving a Position

Request From Another Station on page 53.

Note: The Position Reply function is only available when a working GPS is
connected to the radio.
