WHEN RECEIVING A CALL 3

■Received message (RCV MSG)

When receiving a DSC call, the received format specifier and its contents are memorized into the received message (RCV MSG) memory. Distress calls (including other calls with dis- tress category) are stored separately from other calls.

Up to 20 distress calls can be memorized and up 20 other categories of calls can be memorized. However, the distress calls are saved until being erased, while other calls are erased when the power is turned OFF.
