Receiving Position Requests
You can configure the radio to reply automatically to incoming position requests, or prompt you to review and approve the incoming requests before replying (Sending Automatic Replies).
When you receive a position request with automatic position replies enabled, SENDING ACKNOWLEDGE appears on the screen, and the radio sends your position automatically. After the position successfully transmits, POSITION SENT appears on the screen.
When you receive a position request with automatic position replies disabled, POS. REQUEST appears on the screen.
