Making and receiving calls
2110 SSB Transceiver Reference Manual 165
Call types
There are 8 different types of calls available with an 2110 SSB Transceiver:
• Channel Test call
• Emergency call
• Get Position call
• Get Status call
• Message call
• Phone call
• Selective call
• Send Position call
The types of calls you can make and receive depend on the options installed in the
transceiver.
Each call type has an icon associated with it that is displayed when you make and receive
calls (see Table 18).
@A? a double selective wildcard ANY call to listening stations
that have an ‘A’ as the second to last character of their self
address (‘A’ may be any specified upper-case letter or
number) and any upper-case letter or number as the last
character, for example, USAM, 19MA0, ENA9, 3DAZ (see
page 160, ANY address syntax)
ABC,JK3MN,PQR
(example only)
a Group Selective call to the stations specifically addressed
(see page 161, Group Selective address syntax)
NET address a NET call to all stations with that NET programmed in the
NET List (see page 162, NET address syntax)
??? a Wildcard call to listening stations that have a self address
matching the length of the sent address and with any upper-
case letter or number as each of the characters, for example,
SAM, NAA, 234, 3AZ (see page 163, Wildcard address
syntax)
A?B? (example only) a selective Wildcard call to listening stations that have a self
address matching the length of the sent address with ‘A’ and
‘B’ as the first and third characters respectively, and with any
upper-case letter or number in the second and last characters,
in this case (‘A’ and ‘B’ may be any specified upper-case
letter or number), for example, A2BM, ADB1, AZBE, A3B8
(see page 163, Wildcard address syntax)
