After receiving a call addressed to your own call sign,
even if the “GPS Select” item is set to “OFF” or “Manu-
al,” the internal GPS receiver is temporarily turned ON
for approximately 5 minutes to receive your position.
Then, the transceiver automatically replies with a mes-
sage, as described below.
When the internal GPS receiver is temporarily turned
ON, and valid data is received, the transceiver auto-
