Using the Hailer
Hailer operation is only available with the VHF 200 Series. You must provide and install an
optional hailer horn on the deck or tower to use this feature. See the VHF 100/200 Series
Installation Instructions for installation information.
The hailer, which is part of the PA system of your radio, allows you to make on-boat or
ship-to-shore announcements. The hailer allows for two-way communication: you can
address the ship using the radio or handset, and sounds received through the horn can be
heard through the radio speaker. For vessels with enclosed cabins, this allows you to hear
what is happening on deck.
NOTE: When the radio is in hailer mode, it does not receive trafc from your current channel.
To operate the hailer:
1. Select PA > HAILER. Sounds received through the horn can be heard through the radio
speaker.
2. Press and hold the PTT key and speak your announcement.
3. Turn the Channel knob or select the up and down arrows to adjust the horn volume.
4. Release the PTT key to listen.

The foghorn is part of the PA system of your radio. You can sound the foghorn through
a hailer horn or an external speaker. Your radio can sound the horn automatically using
