This information is important because it will be used if a DSC distress call is transmitted.

If GPS data is NOT available for some reason, the NO GPS alert will sound for 5 seconds (or until you press any key) and the radio requests you to enter the position data manually.

This request is repeated every 4 hours if you do not enter the position data manually. After you have entered the position data manually, you must update it within 23.5 hours otherwise the NO GPS alert sequence repeats.

The NO GPS symbol will be shown whenever GPS data is not available from an operational GPS navigation receiver.
