INSTRUCTION MANUAL SSB RADIO IMPORTANT EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL CAREFULLY The explicit definitions described below apply to this before attempting to operate the transceiver instruction manual SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUALThis manual WORD DEFINITION contains important safety and operating instructions for Personal injury fire hazard or electric RWARNING shock may occur the ICM700PRO SSB RADIO TELEPHONE CAUTION Equipment damage may occur If disregarded inconvenience only No risk NOTE of personal injury fire or electric shock PRECAUTIONS RWARNING NEVER connect the transceiver to an In maritime mobile operation KEEP the transceiver AC outlet directly This may pose a fire hazard or re and microphone as far away as possible at least 1 m sult in an electric shock from the magnetic navigation compass to prevent er roneous indications RWARNING NEVER mount the transceiver over head The weight of the transceiver is approximately 8 USE an Icom microphone andor handset only sup kg but its apparent weight will increase several fold plied or optional Other brands may have different pin due to wave shocks and vibration The transceiver assignments and may damage the transceiver must be mounted on a flat hard surface only AVOID using or placing the transceiver in areas with NEVER connect a power source of more than 16 V DC temperatures below 20C 4F or above 60C such as a 24 volt battery This connection will ruin the 140F transceiver AVOID connecting the transceiver to a power source NEVER allow children to play with equipment contain using reverse polarity This connection will not only ing a radio transmitter blow fuses but may also damage the transceiver NEVER expose the transceiver to rain snow or any AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty en liquids vironments or in direct sunlight NEVER install the ICM700PRO into a plusgrounding AVOID placing the transceiver against walls or putting ship Such a connection might blow fuses and is not anything on top of the transceiver This will obstruct usable heat dissipation DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzene or al cohol when cleaning as they can damage the trans ceivers

recorded in 24 hour time Universal Time UTC Give your call sign each time you call another vessel is frequently used or coast station If you have no call sign identify your vessel name and the name of the licensee Adjustments repairs channel frequency changes and authorized modifications affecting electrical op Give your call sign at the end of each transmission eration of the equipment must be kept in the main that lasts more than 3 min tenance log entries must be signed by the authorized licensed technician performing or super You must break and give your call sign at least once vising the work every 15 min during long shiptoshore calls Keep your unanswered calls short less than 30 sec Do not repeat a call for 2 min RADIO LICENSES 1 SHIP STATION LICENSE Unnecessary transmissions are not allowed You must have a current radio station license before using the transceiver It is unlawful to operate a ship station which is not licensed PRIORITIES Read all rules and regulations pertaining to priorities Inquire through your dealer or the appropriate govern and keep an uptodate copy handy Safety and dis ment agency for a license appli tress calls take priority over all others cation This license states the call sign which is your crafts identification for radio pur False or fraudulent distress calls are prohibited and poses punishable by law 2 OPERATORS LICENSE A Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit is the li PRIVACY cense most often held by small vessel radio operators Information overheard but not intended for you can when a radio is not required for safety purposes not be lawfully used in any way The Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit must Indecent or profane language is prohibited be posted or be kept with the operator Only a licensed radio operator may operate a transceiver However nonlicensed individuals may talk over a transceiver if a licensed operator starts supervises and ends the call and makes the necessary log en tries Keep a
