ENTERING CALL SIGN/ MESSAGE/ RSV

1Use the following procedures to enter a call sign, a message, or an RSV report. RSV stands for readability,

2signal strength, and video. If you receive a clear image

3free from noise, the RSV report should be 595.

4Note: The only difference among Menus 3–1, 3–3, and 3–5 is the

maximum number of digits that you can enter. So you may enter another

5 message using Menu 3–5, for example.
