You are able to make global ALE ALL calls with this option.
CALM is interoperable with FED-STD-1045 ALE.
MIL-STD-188-141B ALE
The MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option includes the FED-STD-1045 ALE/CALM
option. It provides the capability to make ALE calls using ALL, ANY, Group
Selective, NET, and Wildcard address syntaxes. These calls connect one station to
many stations at the same time. The MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option also provides
advanced LQA, advanced messaging, and access to a Heard List.
The MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option is interoperable with FED-STD-1045 ALE and
MIL-STD-188-141B.
Self address
An address is the sequence of characters that an operator at one station uses to call
another station. A self address is the sequence of characters that identifies your station.
This self address is associated with an HF network. The HF network defines what call
system is used to make and receive calls, and the self address and HF network together
define if the transceiver reacts to signals that it detects on air. If a transceiver detects
its address, but does not have the matching call system associated with that address, it
ignores the call. If a transceiver detects its address and has the matching call system,
it accepts the call. The self address may be flagged for receiving calls only.
Scan tables
An HF network must have an associated scan table of channels on which to make
calls, or it can use any channel programmed into the transceiver if the Global entry
is enabled for the HF network.
Global
An HF network typically has channel information associated with it in the form of
scan tables. If you want the HF network and self address to be used to make and
receive calls on any channel that is programmed in the transceiver, select the On
check box for the Global entry.
