We appreciate your purchase of the HX300E, and encourage you to read
this manual thoroughly, so as to learn and fully understand the capabilities of
the HX300E.
1.2 RF EXPOSURE SAFETY STATEMENT
Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmit-
ter. When the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pushed, the transceiver sends out
radio frequency (RF) signals.
This device is authorized to operate at a maximum duty factor not to exceed
2:1 (this corresponds to 50% transmission time and 50% reception time), but
normal usage should not exceed 3:1 (25% transmission time and 75% re-
ception/standby time).
This transmitter and its antenna must maintain a separation distance of at
least 2.5 cm from your face. Speak in a normal voice, with the antenna point-
ed up and away from the face at the required separation distance.
Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modications, or at-
tachments could damage the transmitter.

HX300EPage 6
3. ABOUT THIS RADIO
3.1 ABOUT THE VHF MARINE BAND
The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and
158 MHz. The marine VHF band provides communications over distances
that are essentially “Line of sight” Actual transmission range depends much
more on antenna type, gain and height than on the power output of the trans-
mitter. On a xed mount 25 W radio transmission expected distances can be
greater than 25 km, for a portable radio transmission the expected distance
can be greater than 8 km in “Line of sight”.
The user of a Marine VHF radio is subject to severe nes if the radio is used
on land. The reasoning for this is you may be near an inland waterway, or
propagation anomalies may cause your transmission to be heard in a water-
way. If this occurs, depending upon the marine VHF channel on which you
are transmitting, you could interfere with a search and rescue case, or con-
tribute to a collision between passing ships. For VHF Marine channel assign-
ments refer to section “10. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENT”.
3.2 ABOUT WATER RESISTANCE
The HX300E is only submersible
when the Battery Cover is latched and the
Charge (CHG) Cover is snapped closed.
IPX8 Specication for submersibility: 1.5 m for 30 minutes.
3.3 DISTRESS AND HAILING
(
CHANNEL 16
)
Channel 16 is known as the Hail and Distress Channel. An emergency may
be dened as a threat to life or property. In such instances, be sure the trans-
ceiver is on and set to “Channel 16”. Then use the following procedure:
1. Press the PTT (Push-To-Talk) switch and say Mayday, Mayday, May-
day. This is _____, _____, _____” (your vessel’s name).
2. Then repeat once: “Mayday, _____” (your vessel’s name).
3. Now report your position in latitude/longitude, or by giving a true or mag-
netic bearing (state which) to a well-known landmark such as a naviga-
tion aid or geographic feature such as an island or harbor entry.
4. Explain the nature of your distress (sinking, collision, aground, re, heart
attack, life-threatening injury, etc.).
5. State the kind of assistance your desire (pumps, medical aid, etc.).
6. Report the number of persons aboard and condition of any injured.
7. Estimate the present seaworthiness and condition of your vessel.
8. Give your vessel’s description: length, design (power or sail), color and
other distinguishing marks. The total transmission should not exceed 1
Page 7HX300E
minute.
9. End the message by saying “OVER”. Release the PTT switch and listen.
10. If there is no answer, repeat the above procedure. If there is still no re-
sponse, try another channel.
3.4 CALLING ANOTHER VESSEL
(
CHANNEL 16 OR 9
)
Channel 16 may be used for initial contact (hailing) with another vessel.
However, its most important use is for emergency messages. This channel
must be monitored at all times except when actually using another channel.
It is monitored by the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guards and by other ves-
sels. Use of channel 16 for hailing must be limited to initial contact only. Call-
ing should not exceed 30 seconds, but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute
intervals. In areas of heavy radio trafc, congestion on channel 16 resulting
from its use as a hailing channel can be reduced signicantly in U.S. waters
by using Channel 9 as the initial contact (hailing) channel for non-emergency
communications. Here, also, calling time should not exceed 30 seconds but
may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals.
Prior to making contact with another vessel, refer to the channel charts in this
manual, and select an appropriate channel for communications after initial
contact. For example, Channels 68 and 69 of the U.S. VHF Charts are some
of the channels available to non-commercial (recreational) boaters. Monitor
your desired channel in advance to make sure you will not be interrupting
other trafc, and then go back to either channel 16 or 9 for your initial contact.
When the hailing channel (16 or 9) is clear, state the name of the other ves-
sel you wish to call and then this is followed by the name of your vessel
and your Station License (Call Sign). When the other vessel returns your
call, immediately request another channel by saying go to”, the number of
the other channel, and over”. Then switch to the new channel. When the
new channel is not busy, call the other vessel.
After a transmission, say over”, and release the PTT (Push-To-Talk) switch.
When all communication with the other vessel is completed, end the last
transmission by stating your Call Sign and the word out”. Note that it is not
necessary to state your Call Sign with each transmission, only at the begin-
ning and end of the contact.
Remember to return to Channel 16 when not using another channel. Some
radios automatically monitor Channel 16 even when set to other channels or
when scanning.
HX300EPage 8
3.5 OPERATING ON CHANNELS 13 AND 67
(USA Channel Group Only)
Channel 13 is used at docks and bridges and by vessels maneuvering in
port. Messages on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meet-
ing and passing in restricted waters.
Channel 67 is used for navigational trafc between vessels.
By regulation, power is normally limited to 1 Watt on these channels. Your ra-
dio is programmed to automatically reduce power to this limit on these chan-
nels. however, in certain situations it may be necessary to temporarily use a
higher power.
Pressing the
key will change the power output from Low Power (1 Watt)
to High (5 Watts). When you change from this channel then return to it, low
power will be automatically selected.
3.6 SIMPLEX/DUPLEX CHANNEL USE
Refer to the section 10. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENT for in-
structions on use of simplex and duplex channels.
NOTE
All channels are factory-programmed in accordance with FCC (USA),
Industry Canada and International regulations. The mode of opera-
tion cannot be altered from simplex to duplex or vice-versa. Simplex
(ship to ship) or duplex (marine operator) mode is automatically acti-
vated, depending on the channel and whether the USA, International
or Canadian operating band is selected.

4.2.1 BATTERY SAFETY
Battery packs for your transceiver contain Li-ion batteries. This type of bat-
tery stores a charge powerful enough to be dangerous if misused or abused,
especially when removed from the transceiver. Please observe the following
precautions:
DO NOT SHORT BATTERY PACK TERMINALS: Shorting the terminals
that power the transceiver can cause sparks, severe overheating, burns, and
battery cell damage. If the short is of sufcient duration, it is possible to melt
battery components. Do not place a loose battery pack on or near metal sur-
faces or objects such as paper clips, keys, tools, etc. When the battery pack
is installed on the transceiver, the terminals that transfer current to the trans-
ceiver are not exposed. The terminals that are exposed on the battery pack
when it is mounted on the transceiver are charging terminals only and do not
constitute a hazard.
DO NOT INCINERATE: Do not dispose of any battery in a re or incinerator.
The heat of re may cause battery cells to explode and/or release dangerous
gases.
Battery Maintenance
For safe and proper battery use, please observe the following:
Battery packs should be charged only in non-hazardous environments;
Use only STANDARD HORIZON-approved batteries;
Exceeding the specied temperature limits;
Reversing charge polarity. Use only the proper charger. If this is tam-
pered with or another charger is used, permanent damage may result;
Use only a STANDARD HORIZON approved charger. The use of any
other charger may cause permanent damage to the battery.
Follow charging instructions provided with the chargers.
Submersing the battery in water, or attempting to open the battery casing.
Keep the battery contacts clean.
Battery Storage
When a battery pack is not used for a long time, please remove it from the
transceiver. Also, while in storage, the charge will drain slightly over time and
the battery should be recharged each six months.
Store the batteries in a cool place to maximize storage life. Since batteries are
subject to self-discharge, avoid high storage temperatures that cause large
self-discharge rates. After extended storage, a full recharge is recommended.
HX300EPage 12
Battery Recycling
DO NOT PLACE USED BATTERIES IN YOUR REGULAR TRASH!
LI-ION BATTERIES MUST BE COLLECTED, RECYCLED
OR DISPOSED OF IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND
MANNER.
The incineration, land lling or mixing of Li-ion batteries with the municipal
solid waste stream is PROHIBITED BY LAW in most areas.
Return batteries to an approved Li-ion battery recycler. This may be where

10. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS
Tables on the following columns list the VHF Marine Channel assignments
for USA. and International use. Below are listed some data about the charts.
1. VTS. Where indicated, these channels are part of the U.S. Coast Guard’s
Vessel Trafc System.
2. Alpha channel numbers, that is, channel numbers followed by the letter A
(such as Channel 07A) are simplex channels on the USA. or Canadian
channel assignments whose counterparts in the International assign-
ments are duplex channels. International channels do not use “alpha”
numbers. If you call the Coast Guard on Channel 16, they will sometimes
ask you to “go to channel 22 Alpha.” This is a channel assigned to USA,
and Canadian Coast Guards for handling distress and other calls. If your
radio is set for International operation you will go to Channel 22 instead
of 22A, and will not be able to communicate with the Coast Guard. To
use Channel 22A, your radio must be set for USA or Canada operation,
usually by a U/I/C (USA/International/Canada) control or combination of
controls. Channel 22 (without an “A”) is an International duplex channel
for port operations. Some radios indicate an “A” adjacent to the alpha
channels on the display; on others “alpha” is not indicated but the proper
channel is selected based on the U/I/C setting.
3. Bridge-to-Bridge channels (for example, Channel 13) are for use by
bridge operators on inter-coastal waterways and rivers. It is also used by
marine vessels in the vicinity of these bridges for navigation and for com-
municating with the bridge operators. Note that a limit of 1 Watt is speci-
ed for these channels.
4. The S/D column on the chart indicates either S (simplex) or D (duplex).
Simplex means transmitting and receiving on the same frequency. Only
one party at a time can talk, unlike a telephone. Be sure to say over
and release your microphone push-to-talk switch at the end of each
transmission. Duplex operation involves the use of one frequency for
transmitting and a separate frequency for receiving. On channels speci-
ed as duplex on the charts, correct mode of operation is established au-
tomatically by your radio when you select a channel; you cannot change
the mode. And you still must release the push-to-talk switch after each
transmission in order to listen to the radio.
5. Channels normally used by recreational boaters are those that include
the term non-commercial in the Channel Use column of the chart.
Some of these are shared with other users and some are used only in
certain geographic regions.
6. Marine vessels equipped with VHF radios are required to monitor Chan-
nel 16.
