1 GENERAL INFORMATION
The STANDARD HORIZON MATRIX Series GX2200 Marine VHF/FM Marine
transceiver is designed to be used in USA, International, and Canadian
Marine bands. The GX2200 can be operated from 11 to 16 VDC and has a
switchable RF output power of 1 watt or 25 watts.
The GX2200 integrates a dual channel AIS (Automatic Identification System)
receiver to display AIS vessel information (MMSI, Call Sign, Ship Name,
BRG, DST, SOG and COG) directly on the VHF radio, so you will know
what is out there in any conditions. The GX2200 is also capable of entering
and saving up to 100 waypoints, which may be selected and navigated to
by using a unique navigation compass display. The GX2200 allows you to
contact an AIS ship directly using DSC, show your vessels position in relation
to AIS targets and alert you when an AIS ship may be approaching too close
to your location via the Closest Point of Approach (CPA) Alarm. To receive
AIS targets from ships with AIS class A or B transponders, simply connect
the normal VHF antenna (only one antenna needed!).
The GX2200 is capable of DSC (Digital Selective Calling) ITU Class D operation. Class D operation allows continuous receiving of Digital Selective Calling functions on channel 70 even if the radio is receiving a call. The GX2200
operates on all currently-allocated marine channels which are switchable for
use with USA, International, or Canadian regulations. Emergency channel 16
can be immediately selected from any channel by pressing the red 169 key.
NOAA weather channel can also be accessed immediately by pressing and
holding the
key.
CLR
WX
Other features of the GX2200 includes: a 12-channel internal GPS receiver,
speaker microphone, 30W PA/Fog, optional RAM3 second station remotecontrol microphone with AIS display, intercom between radio and optional
RAM3, scanning, priority scanning, submersible speaker microphone, high
and low voltage warning, and GPS repeatability.

5 GETTING STARTED
5.1
PROHIBITED COMMUNICATIONS
5.2
ABOUT VHF RADIO
5.3
SELECTING AN ANTENNA
The FCC prohibits the following communications:
â˘ False distress or emergency messages:
â˘ Messages to âany boatâ except in emergencies and radio tests;
â˘ Messages to or from a vessel on land;
â˘ Transmission while on land;
â˘ Obscene, indecent, or profane language (potential fine of $10,000).
The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and
158 MHz with some shore stations available between 161 and 163 MHz. The
marine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially âline of sightâ (VHF signals do not travel well through objects such as
buildings, hills or trees). Actual transmission range depends much more on
antenna type, gain and height than on the power output of the transmitter.
On a fixed mount 25W radio transmission expected distances can be greater
than 15 miles, for a portable 5W radio transmission the expected distance
can be greater than 5 miles in âline of sightâ.
Marine antennas are made to radiate signals equally in all horizontal directions, but not straight up. The objective of a marine antenna is to enhance
the signal toward the horizon. The degree to which this is accomplished is
called the antennaâs gain. It is measured in decibels (dB) and is one of the
major factors in choosing an antenna. In terms of effective radiated power
(ERP), antennas are rated on the basis of how much gain they have over a
theoretical antenna with zero gain. A 3-foot, 3dB gain antenna represents
twice as much gain over the imaginary antenna.
Typically a 3-foot 3dB gain stainless steel whip is used on a sailboat mast.
The longer 8-foot 6dB fiberglass whip is primarily used on power boats that
require the additional gain.

5.4
COAXIAL CABLE
VHF antennas are connected to the transceiver by means of a coaxial cable
â a shielded transmission line. Coaxial cable is specified by itâs diameter and
construction.
For runs less than 20 feet, RG-58/U, about 1/4 inch in diameter is a good
choice. For runs over 20 feet but less than 50 feet, the larger RG-8X or
RG-213/U should be used for cable runs over 50 feet RG-8X should be used.
For installation of the connector onto the coaxial cable refer to the figure
below.
To get your coax cable through a fitting and into your boatâs interior,
you may have to cut off the end plug and reattach it later. You can do
this if you follow the directions that come with the connector. Be sure
to make good soldered connections.
5.5
DISTRESS AND HAILING (CHANNEL 16)
Channel 16 is known as the Hail and Distress Channel. An emergency may
be defined as a threat to life or property. In such instances, be sure the
transceiver is on and set to CHANNEL 16. Then use the following procedure:
1. Press the microphone push-to-talk switch and say âMayday, Mayday,
Mayday. This is
â (your vesselâs name).
2. Then repeat once: âMayday,
â (your vesselâs name).
3. Now report your position in latitude/longitude, or by giving a true or
magnetic bearing (state which) to a well-known landmark such as a navigation aid or geographic feature such as an island or harbor entry.
4. Explain the nature of your distress (sinking, collision, aground, fire, heart
attack, life-threatening injury, etc.).
5. State the kind of assistance your desire (pumps, medical aid, etc.).
Page 8
GX2200
YAESU MUSEN CO., LTD.

IC:511B-30443X3D
6. Report the number of persons aboard and condition of any injured.
7. Estimate the present seaworthiness and condition of your vessel.
8. Give your vesselâs description: length, design (power or sail), color and
other distinguishing marks. The total transmission should not exceed 1
minute.
9. End the message by saying âOVERâ. Release the microphone button
and listen.
10. If there is no answer, repeat the above procedure. If there is still no
response, try another channel.
NOTE
The GX2200 has the DSC Distress calling, that can transmit a
distress call digitally to all ships with compatible DSC radios. Refer to
section â9 DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING (DSC)â.
5.6
CALLING ANOTHER VESSEL (CHANNEL 16 OR 9)
Channel 16 may be used for initial contact (hailing) with another vessel.
However, its most important use is for emergency messages. This channel
must be monitored at all times except when actually using another channel.
It is monitored by the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guards and by other vessels.
Use of channel 16 for hailing must be limited to initial contact only. Calling should not exceed 30 seconds, but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute
intervals. In areas of heavy radio traffic, congestion on channel 16 resulting
from its use as a hailing channel can be reduced significantly in U.S. waters
by using channel 9 as the initial contact (hailing) channel for non-emergency
communications. Here, also, calling time should not exceed 30 seconds but
may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals.
Prior to making contact with another vessel, refer to the channel charts in
this manual, and select an appropriate channel for communications after
initial contact. For example, Channels 68 and 69 of the U.S. VHF Charts are
some of the channels available to non-commercial (recreational) boaters.
Monitor your desired channel in advance to make sure you will not be interrupting other traffic, and then go back to either channel 16 or 9 for your initial
contact.
When the hailing channel (16 or 9) is clear, press the PTT button on the mic
and state the name of the other vessel you wish to call and then âthis isâ
followed by the name of your vessel and your Station License (Call Sign)
then release the PTT button on the mic. When the other vessel returns your
call, immediately request another channel by pressing the PTT button on
GX2200

FCC ID:K6630443X3D
IC:511B-30443X3D
the mic and saying âgo to,â the number of the other channel, say âoverâ and
release the PTT button on the mic. Then switch to the new channel. When
the new channel is not busy, call the other vessel.
After a transmission, say âover,â and release the microphoneâs push-to-talk
(PTT) switch. When all communication with the other vessel is completed,
end the last transmission by stating your Call Sign and the word âout.â Note
that it is not necessary to state your Call Sign with each transmission, only at
the beginning and end of the contact.
Remember to return to Channel 16 when not using another channel. Some
radios automatically monitor Channel 16 even when set to other channels or
when scanning.
5.7
MAKING TELEPHONE CALLS
To make a radiotelephone call, use a channel designated for this purpose.
The fastest way to learn which channels are used for radiotelephone traffic
is to ask at a local marina. Channels available for such traffic are designated
Public Correspondence channels on the channel charts in this manual.
Some examples for USA use are Channels 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 84, 85, 86,
and 87. Call the marine operator and identify yourself by your vesselâs name.
The marine operator will then ask you how you will pay for the call (telephone
credit card, collect, etc.) and then link your radio transmission to the telephone lines.
The marine telephone company managing the VHF channel you are using
may charge a link-up fee in addition to the cost of the call.
5.8
BRIDGE CHANNELS 13 AND 67
Channel 13 is used at docks, bridges and by vessels maneuvering in port.
Messages on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meeting
and passing in restricted waters.
Channel 67 is used for navigational traffic between vessels.
By regulation, power is normally limited to 1 Watt on these channels. Your
radio is programmed to automatically reduce power to this limit on these
channels. However, in certain situations it may be necessary to temporarily
use a higher power. See page 30 (
key) for means to temporarily
override the low-power limit on these two channels.

AUTOMATED RADIO CHECK SERVICE
In areas across the country, Sea Tow offers boaters a way to conduct radio
checks. To use Sea Towâs free Automated Radio Check service, simply tune
your VHF radio to the appropriate channel for your location and conduct a
radio check as you typically would. Upon releasing your radioâs microphone,
the system will play an automated message and relay your transmission
back to you, thereby letting you know how your signal will sound to other
boaters.
The Automated Radio Check Service is currently available in the areas listed
below.

5.10 WHAT IS THE RANGE FOR AIS RECEIVERS?
Since AIS uses similar frequencies as a marine VHF radio, it has similar
radio reception capabilities - which are basically line of sight. This means
that the higher the VHF antenna is mounted, the greater the reception area
will be. Reception from Class A vessels that are 20 or even 30 miles away
on open water is not uncommon as their antennas are mounted high off the
water. Class B transponders use lower power for transmissions; therefore
you can expect Class B vessels to be acquired when they are 5 to 10 miles
away.
NOTE
The GX2200 does not require a special marine VHF antenna to
receive AIS transmissions. The GX2200 does not transmit AIS
signals, it is NOT recommended to use an antenna dedicated for AIS
operation.
For additional information on AIS visit the USCG website:

6.1
SAFETY / WARNING INFORMATION
This radio is restricted to occupational use, work related operations only
where the radio operator must have the knowledge to control the exposure
conditions of its passengers and bystanders by maintaining the minimum
separation distance of 3 feet (1 m). Failure to observe these restrictions will
result in exceeding the FCC RF exposure limits.
Antenna Installation:
The antenna must be located at least 3 feet (1 m) away from passengers in
order to comply with the FCC RF exposure requirements.
6.2
LOCATION
The radio can be mounted at any angle. Choose a mounting location that:
â˘ is far enough from any compass to avoid any deviation in compass
reading due to the speaker magnet
â˘ provides accessibility to the front panel controls
â˘ allows connection to a power source and an antenna
â˘ has nearby space for installation of a microphone hanger
â˘ is at least 3 feet (1 m) away from the radioâs antenna
â˘ the signal from the GPS satellite can receive sufficiently.
Note: To insure the radio does not affect the compass or radios performance
is not affected by the antenna location, temporarily connect the radio in the
desired location and:
a. Examine the compass to see if the radio causes any deviation
b. Connect the antenna and key the radio. Check to ensure the radio is
operating correctly by requesting a radio check.

NOTE
A GPS receiver and antenna of the GX2200 is located in the front
panel. In many cases the radio may be flush mounted, however
before cutting holes to flush mount the radio it is recommended to
temporarily connect the radio to power and turn on in the location
where it will be flush mounted to confirm it is able to receive a GPS
location on itâs display. If the radio is not able to receive a location, a
GPS Chart plotter with NMEA 0183 output or the optional Standard
Horizon external GPS antenna may be needed to receive GPS satellite signals.
To use the optional Standard Horizon external GPS antenna
(Q7000619A), the GX2200 internal GPS Unit Power must be turned
OFF (refer to section â15.1 UNIT POWERâ) and the GPS Selection

8.11 PA/FOG OPERATION
The GX2200 has a 30W hailer built-in and can be used with any 4 Ohm PA
horn. Standard Horizon offers two HAIL/PA horns, the 220SW (5â round 30
Watt HAIL/PA horn) and the 240SW (5â x 8â rectangular 40 Watt HAIL/PA
horn). When the GX2200 is in PA Hail mode the PA speaker listens back (acts
as a microphone and provides two-way communications through the PA horn
to the main radio).
NOTE
When in the PA HAIL or FOG HORN mode, the GX2200 will continue
to receive DSC calls and communications on the last selected working channel prior to entering the PA HAIL or FOG HORN mode.
Then the GX2200 AIS page can also be accessed when in the PA
HAIL or FOG HORN mode.
PA HAIL mode:
PA HAIL mode allows the transceiver to be used as a power hailer when
an optional STANDARD HORIZON 220SW or 240SW HAIL/PA horn is
installed. The PA Hail mode has a listen-back feature which provides two
way communication through the HAIL/PA horn.
FOG HORN mode:
Automatic signaling is transmitted through the HAIL/PA horn. When the
fog horn, bells or whistle signal is not being outputted the GX2200 listens
back through the connected PA horn.

9 DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING (DSC)
9.1
GENERAL
WARNING
This GX2200 is designed to generate a digital maritime distress and
safety call to facilitate search and rescue. To be effective as a safety
device, this equipment must be used only within communication
range of a shore-based VHF marine channel 70 distress and safety
watch system. The range of signal may vary but under normal conditions should be approximately 20 nautical miles.
NOTE
A DSC Warning sticker is included with
the GX2200. To comply with FCC regulations this sticker must be mounted in a
location that can be easily viewed from
the location of the GX2200.
WARNING
STICKER
Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is a semi-automated method of establishing a
radio call, it has been designated by the International Maritime Organization
(IMO) as an international standard for establishing VHF, MF and HF radio
calls. It has also been designated as part of the Global Maritime Distress and
Safety System (GMDSS). It is planned that DSC will eventually replace aural
watches on distress frequencies and will be used to announce routine and
urgent maritime safety information broadcasts.
This system allows mariners to instantly send a distress call with GPS position (when connected to the transceiver) to the Coast Guard and other
vessels within range of the transmission. DSC will also allow mariners to
initiate or receive Distress, Urgency, Safety, Routine, Position Request,
and Position Report, Automatic Position Polling, and Group calls to or from
another vessel equipped with a DSC transceiver.
9.2
MARITIME MOBILE SERVICE IDENTITY (MMSI)
9.2.1 What is an MMSI?
An MMSI is a nine digit number used on marine transceivers capable of using
Digital Selective Calling (DSC). This number is used like a telephone number
to selectively call other vessels.
