[. . . ] Group MMSI: Group MMSI numbers are not assigned by the FCC or other organizations licensed to assign ship MMSI numbers. The first digit of a Group MMSI is always set to "0" by International rules. All Standard Horizon radios are preset so when programming a Group MMSI the first digit is set to "0". The USCG recommends programming the MID of a ships MMSI into the Second, Third and Fourth digits of the Group MMSI as it denotes the area the ship is located in. This is an important step as all radios in the Group must contain the same Group MMSI so they can be contacted by each other. There is a chance that another group of vessels may program in the same Group MMSI. If this happens, simply change one or more of the last 5 digits of the Group MMSI. Press and hold down the [CALL(MENU)] key until "Setup Menu" appears. Press the [SELECT] soft key, then select "GROUP DIRECTORY" with the CHANNEL knob. Press the [SELECT] soft key, then select "ADD" with the CHANNEL knob. Rotate the CHANNEL knob to scroll through the first letter of the name of the group you want to reference in the directory. Press the [SELECT] soft key to store the first letter in the name and step to the next letter to the right. The name can consist of up to eleven characters, if you do not use all eleven characters press the [SELECT] soft key to move to the next space. If a mistake was made entering in the name repeat pressing the [BACK] soft key until the wrong character is selected, then rotate the CHANNEL knob to correct the entry. After the eleventh letter or space has been entered, press and hold the [SELECT] soft key to advance to the GROUP MMSI (Maritime Mobile Service Identity Number) number entry. Rotate the CHANNEL knob to select the second number of the MMSI (nine digits: first digit permanently set to "0") which you want to contact, then press the [SELECT] soft key to step to the next number. Repeat this procedure until all eight space of the MMSI number are entered. If a mistake was made entering in the MMSI number repeat pressing the [BACK] soft key until the wrong number is selected, then rotate the CHANNEL knob to correct the entry. Press the [QUIT] soft key several times to return to radio operation. 11. 7. 2 Transmitting a Group Call Pre-Programmed Calling 1. The transceiver will beep, and the "Last Group Call" will appear. Rotate the CHANNEL knob to select the "Group" you want to contact.
