the timeout tone sounds, TX displays, and the channel
indicators blink.
Boosting the transmission power
In most situations, 1W transmission power is all you need.
If you nd yourself far away from other stations and have
trouble getting a response, you may need to boost the
transmission power from 1W to 2.5W or 6W.
#Alkaline battery boost is limited to 2.5W
#Channels 75 and 76 are 1W only and do not have power
override capability.
1) Select the channel you want to transmit on.
2) Press L/M/H to switch to the next transmission power level
(for example, from 1W to 2.5W; from 2.5W to 6W, or from
6W back to 1W).
3) The display shows the new transmission power. The
transmit power remains at the new setting until you
change it again.
#Don’t forget to change the transmission setting back to
1W when you move close to other stations.
Some channels (for example, channels 13 and 67) limit
the transmission power to 1W. When you tune to a limited-
power channel, the radio automatically switches to 1W.
See page E-27 for a list of power-restricted channels.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Due to its rugged design, your radio requires very little
maintenance. However, it is a precision electronic instrument,
so you should follow a few precautions:
If the antenna has been damaged, do not transmit except
in an emergency situation. Transmitting with a defective
antenna may cause further radio damage.
You are responsible for continued FCC technical
compliance of your radio.

Regulations and Safety Warnings
Maritime Radio Services Operation
Warning! This transmitter will operate on channels/frequencies that have
restricted use in the United States. The channel assignments include
frequencies assigned for exclusive use of the U.S. Coast Guard, use in
Canada, and use in international waters. Operation on these frequencies
without proper authorization is strictly forbidden. See page E-31 for tables of
the available channels and their uses. If you are still not certain which
channels to use, see the FCC maritime radio page at the FCC website
(
http://wireless.fcc.gov/marine/
) or contact the FCC Call Center at
1-888-CALL-FCC. For individuals requiring a license, such as commercial
users, you should obtain a license application from your nearest FCC eld
ofce (for US users) or Industry Canada (for Canadian users).
Basic Radio Guidelines
You should familiarize yourself with the rules on marine radios and be
aware of which rules apply to your boat. Complete guidelines for all ship
and marine radio types can be found at the US Coast Guard website
under the topic Radio Info for Boaters (the direct link is
http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/marcomms/boater.htm
). Here are a few
guidelines that affect nearly all boaters.
If you have a VHF radio on your boat, you must maintain a watch on
channel 16 (156.800 MHz) whenever the radio is not being used to
communicate. Starting in 2004, if a radio is carried, it must be on and set
to channel 16. Whenever your boat is underway.
If you hear a distress call, wait a few minutes to let a shore station or
Coast Guard vessel respond. If no other station has responded after 5
minutes, you must respond to the distress call.
WARNING! Read this information before
using the radio.
E-39
