A telex modem (NBDP) accompanies the transceiver unit for general message transfer and distress message/maritime safety information handling, satisfying the carriage requirements for GMDSS A3-A4 sea areas.
The FS1570 maintains a continuous watch on a distress call, even while you are exchanging normal voice messages. The DSC channels can be individually set or all selected channels can be automatically scanned. When a DSC message is received, the radiotelephone gives audible and visual alarms. It works on all authorized transmit frequencies between 1.6 and 27.5 MHz. Receiver frequencies are selectable between 100kHz and 30Mhz in 10Hz steps. The transmit and receive frequencies can be selected separately or in pair. The digital frequency synthesizer provides high frequency stability for DSC and NBDP as well as telephony operation.
