3. ABOUT THIS RADIO
ApplicationforFCC/IC
FCCID:K6630623X30IC:511B-30623X30
3.1 ABOUT THE VHF MARINE BAND
The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 158 MHz with NOAA Weather stations available between 161 and 163 MHz. The marine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially “Line of sight” Actual transmission range depends much more on antenna type, gain and height than on the power output of the transmit-
ter. On a xed mount 25 W radio transmission expected distances can be
greater than 15 miles, for a portable 5 W radio transmission the expected distance can be greater than 5 miles in “Line of sight”.
The user of a Marine VHF radio is subject to severe nes if the radio is used
on land. The reasoning for this is you may be near an inland waterway, or propagation anomalies may cause your transmission to be heard in a wa­terway. If this occurs, depending upon the marine VHF channel on which you are transmitting, you could interfere with a search and rescue case, or contribute to a collision between passing ships. For VHF Marine channel as­signments refer to section “10. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS”.
WARNING
This radio is capable of transmitting on Marine VHF radio frequencies. The FCC allows the use of VHF Marine band on water areas only. Use of
the VHF Marine band when on land is not permitted. If persons use the VHF Marine Band on land and interfere with other communications, the
FCC will be notied and search for the interference. Responsible parties found to be transmitting on the VHF Marine Band on land could be ned up to $10,000 for the rst offense.
3.2 ABOUT WATER PROTECTION
The HX40 is only submersible※ when the MIC/SP cap is installed in the MIC/SP jack.
IPX7 Specication for submersibility: 3 ft. (1 m) for 30 minutes.
※
3.3 DISTRESS AND HAILING (CHANNEL 16
Channel 16 is designated as the Hail and Distress Channel. An emergency may be dened as a threat to life or property. In such instances, be sure the trans­ceiver is turned ON, and set to “Channel 16”. Then use the following procedure:
1. Press the PTT (Push-To-Talk) switch and say “Mayday, Mayday, May- day. This is _____, _____, _____” (your vessel’s name).
2. Then repeat once: “Mayday, _____” (your vessel’s name).
3. Now report your position in latitude/longitude, or by giving a true or mag­netic bearing (state which) to a well-known landmark such as a naviga­tion aid or geographic feature such as an island or harbor entry.
4. Explain the nature of your distress (sinking, collision, aground, re, heart
attack, life-threatening injury, etc.).
Page 4
)
HX40
5. State the kind of assistance you desire (pumps, medical aid, etc.).
ApplicationforFCC/IC
FCCID:K6630623X30IC:511B-30623X30
6. Report the number of persons aboard and condition of any injured.
7. Estimate the present seaworthiness and condition of your vessel.
8. Give your vessel’s description: length, design (power or sail), color and other distinguishing marks. The total transmission should not exceed 1 minute.
9. End the message by saying “OVER”. Release the PTT switch and listen.
10. If there is no answer, repeat the above procedure. If there is still no re­sponse, try another channel.
3.4 CALLING ANOTHER VESSEL (CHANNEL 16 OR 9
Channel 16 may be used for initial contact (hailing) with another vessel.
However, its most important use is for emergency messages. This channel must be monitored at all times except when actually using another channel.
It is monitored by the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guards and by other ves­sels. Use of channel 16 for hailing must be limited to initial contact only. Call­ing should not exceed 30 seconds, but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute
intervals. In areas of heavy radio trafc, congestion on channel 16 resulting from its use as a hailing channel can be reduced signicantly in U.S. waters
by using Channel 9 as the initial contact (hailing) channel for non-emergency communications. Here, also, calling time should not exceed 30 seconds but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals.
Prior to making contact with another vessel, refer to the channel charts in this manual, and select an appropriate channel for communications after initial contact. For example, Channels 68 and 69 of the U.S. VHF Charts are some of the channels available to non-commercial (recreational) boaters. Monitor your desired channel in advance to make sure you will not be interrupting
other trafc, and then go back to either channel 16 or 9 for your initial contact.
When the hailing channel (16 or 9) is clear, state the name of the other ves­sel you wish to call and then “this is” followed by the name of your vessel and your Station License (Call Sign). When the other vessel returns your call, immediately request another channel by saying “go to”, the number of the other channel, and “over ”. Then switch to the new channel. When the new channel is not busy, call the other vessel.
)
After a transmission, say “over”, and release the PTT (Push-To-Talk) switch. When all communication with the other vessel is completed, end the last transmission by stating your Call Sign and the word “out”. Note that it is not necessary to state your Call Sign with each transmission, only at the begin­ning and end of the contact.
Remember to return to Channel 16 when not using another channel. Some radios automatically monitor Channel 16 even when set to other channels or when scanning.

3.5 BRIDGE CHANNELS 13 AND 67
ApplicationforFCC/IC
FCCID:K6630623X30IC:511B-30623X30
Channel 13 is used at docks, bridges and by vessels maneuvering in port. Messages on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meeting and passing in restricted waters.
Channel 67 is used for navigational trafc between vessels.
By regulation, power is normally limited to 1 Watt on these channels. Your radio is programmed to automatically reduce power to this limit on these channels. However, in certain situations it may be necessary to temporarily use a higher power. See page 14 for means to temporarily override the low­power limit on these two channels.
3.6 SIMPLEX/DUPLEX CHANNEL USE
Refer to the section “10. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS” for in­structions on use of simplex and duplex channels.
NOTE
All channels are factory-programmed in accordance with FCC (USA), ISED (Canada) and International regulations. The mode of operation cannot be altered from simplex to duplex or vice-versa. Simplex (ship to ship) or duplex (marine operator) mode is automatically activated, de­pending on the channel and whether the USA, International or Canadian operating band is selected.
