Position Request Reply Type

The ability to send your position to another station is an added feature of DSC radios that have GPS attached. It is handy for rendezvous and rescue situations.

Your CobraMarineVHF radio allows you to choose whether to have the radio automatically respond to all Position Requests it receives or to alert you to a Position Request and allow you to choose whether to respond or not — manual reply.
