Section 3: Advanced Operation
This section will give a more detailed explanation of what your radio
can do. We'll start off with a breakdown of the types of DSC calls the
LVR-850 can transmit and receive. That will be followed by a brief de-
scription of how to place a non-DSC call. If you are comfortable with
your knowledge regarding transmission and reception of calls, skip
ahead to page 20 to see how to set up a MMSI Directory. On page 27,
there is information on the radio's weather function.

The five DSC calling modes are:
1.
AllShips Call: places a call to any ship in range of you.
2.
Directory Call: dials number from MMSI directory.
3.
Distress Call: executes an emergency call to Coast Guard and other
ships in range of you.
3.
Last Call: dials last incoming call.
4.
New Call: places call to caller not in the MMSI directory.
Press

menu). The
