Hi David,
thanks for the info, looks like I got some
reading to do or I could just ask the list... :)
I thought to the DSC function was for ringing
me mates on 16 (ring only their radio) and then
we go to a working channel in the normal fashion.
So if I have DSC enabled does the radio need to be on dual watch?
Maybe this is the year I get my number and
configure the radio but then I'll have to find some friends too. :)
Cheers, Russ

Russ,
Just by way of clarification, I think you'll
find that Bob is asking about the DSC only
function. Channel 70 is not a voice channel.

Hi Bob,
the simple function is just like any ol' radio,
after it's hooked up, just press play and talk.
All the fancy stuff needs programming/key
functions to screw it up. I haven't configured my SH yet, too busy. :)

Today I received my first grown-up radio, a Standard Horizon GX2200.
DSC looks like a very nice technology but I am
wondering how to test/learn it without
triggering a bunch of false alarms or general chaos.
I'm docked in a backwater, but there is
occasional barge traffic that probably has AIS transmitters.
I'd like to verify that my new radio can easily
communicate (via channel 70?) with the barges as they pass by.
Maybe I need to read the fine manual again but
am wondering if anyone else has done this
exercise and if there are any tips or gotchas.
Many thanks in advance,
