RECEIVING A MESSAGE

Each time a proper message is received, the frequency display is
interrupted to show information as below:
a: Indicator
b: Callsign (TX)
c: Receive time
d: Message
e: TX/RX date
f: Line number
• The display shows up to 67 characters of the message.
• “ 01” will appear to indicate the number of messages not yet read.
• The following indicators appear depending on the types of received
messages:

Indicator Meaning

Message addressed to you

B Bulletin message

! Report by the National Weather Service

Reception acknowledgment (or rejection) to

your message

G Message group

• “ XX” appears on the display when you have an unread message
(where XX is the number of unread messages). When you verify
the reception of a message (by pressing the Tuning control), the
message is marked as read. For each message you view, then
number (XX) decreases by 1. When only 1 message is unread (“
01”), viewing this message will cause the icon to be removed from
the display. (When you enter the message list display and select a
message designated as unread by the “ XX” mark, the message
will be marked as read.)
• When a duplicate message from the same station is received,
the reception interrupt display does not appear and an error tone
sounds. When the frequency at that time appears on the display,
“dM”(duplicate Message) and the calling station's callsign appears on
the display.
.
Note:
◆ This transceiver allows you to receive a message also when the SSID does not
match. However, it will not return a reception acknowledgment.
◆ The dedicated memory is used for storing both incoming and outgoing
messages. Receiving a new message when the memory is full causes the
oldest message to be deleted. A message not yet transmitted 5 times may be
unexpectedly deleted. If the oldest message has not been accessed using the
List function when memory is full, a new message does not replace the oldest
message. This transceiver will return a reject command and display “rM”.
◆ This transceiver beeps each time it receives any type of APRS packet. You
may access Menu 624 (SOUND-RX BEEP) to change this setting. The
default is “ALL”.
