3. ABOUT THIS RADIO
3.1 ABOUT THE VHF MARINE BAND
The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 162
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 transmitter.
On a xed mount 25 W radio transmission expected distances can be greater
than 15 miles, for a portable 5 W radio transmission the expected distance
can be greater than 5 miles 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 contribute
to a collision between passing ships. For VHF Marine channel assignments
refer to page 30 section 9.
3.2 ABOUT THE LMR CHANNELS
The HX380 is capable of being programmed with 40 LMR (Land Mobile Ra-
dio) channels by a dealer. The frequency range is 134 to 174MHz which may
be setup for 25 kHz (wide) or 12.5 kHz (narrow) channel stepping with CTCSS
and DCS signaling. Contact your dealer for further details.
3.3 ABOUT WATER RESISTANCE
Water resistance of the transceiver is ensured only when the battery pack is
attached to the transceiver and MIC/SP cap is installed in the MIC/SP jack.
3.4 EMERGENCY
(
CHANNEL 16 USE
)
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 transceiv-
er 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 magnet-
ic bearing (state which) to a well-known landmark such as a navigation 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.
Page 7
HX380
7. Estimate the present seaworthiness and condition of your vessel.
8. Give your vessel’s description: length, design (power or sail), color and oth-
er distinguishing marks. The total transmission should not exceed 1 minute.
9. End the message by saying “OVER”. Release the PTT
( )
switch and lis-
ten.
10. If there is no answer, repeat the above procedure. If there is still no re-
sponse, try another channel.
3.5 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 vessels.
Use of channel 16 for hailing must be limited to initial contact only. Calling
should not exceed 30 seconds, but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute in-
tervals. In areas of heavy radio traffic, 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. Also hailing on channel 9, the 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 con-
tact. 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 de-
sired channel in advance to make sure you will not be interrupting o
ther 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 vessel
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, im-
mediately 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 be-
ginning and end of the contact.
Remember to return to Channel 16 when not using another channel.
HX380
Page 8
3.6 OPERATING ON CHANNEL 13
Channel 13 is used at docks, bridges and for maneuvering in port. Messages
on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meeting and passing
in restricted waters. In emergencies and when approaching blind river bends,
High power is allowed. Pressing the key will change the power output
from Low Power (1 Watt) to High (5 Watts). When you change from this chan-
nel then return to it, low power will be automatically selected.
3.7 OPERATING ON CHANNEL 67
When channel 67 is used for navigational bridge-to-bridge traffic between
ships, High power may be used temporarily (in the USA band) by pressing the
key. When release the PTT switch, the transceiver will revert to low pow-
er.
3.8 SIMPLEX/DUPLEX CHANNEL USE
Refer to the VHF MARINE CHANNEL CHART (page 30) for instructions on
use of simplex and duplex channels.
NOTE
All channels are factory-programmed in accordance with FCC, Industry
Canada, and International regulations. The mode of operation cannot be
altered from simplex to duplex or vice-versa. Simplex (ship to ship) or du-
plex (marine operator) mode is automatically activated, depending on the
channel and whether the USA, Canadian or International operating band
is selected.

4. GETTING STARTED
4.1 RADIO CARE
CAUTION
Before following the instructions below, insure the battery pack is in place
and rmly connected. Care must be taken if the radio was dropped and a
close inspection may be needed to insure the radio case and gaskets are
in adequate condition.
The design of the HX380 allows water to enter between the radio and the bat-
tery pack, however waterproof performance is not compromised.
After using the HX380 in salt water environment is recommended to clean the
radio with fresh water by rinsing the battery and radio (separately) under a
sink facet or by dunking in a fresh water. After washing,use a soft cloth to thor-
oughly dry all parts of the radio and battery.
This will keep the radio parts and the battery clean and in top operating condition.
4.2 BELT CLIP INSTALLATION
Insert the mounting screw through the belt clip, and affix it snugly to the
mounting hole on the back of the transceiver.
CAUTION
Do not install the supplied Belt Clip Mounting Screws if you are not install-
ing the Belt Clip! Also, do not use an improper screw for mounting the Belt
Clip! An improper screw may cause a “short circuit” to the internal circuitry,
causing serious damage!

4.3 BATTERIES AND CHARGERS
If the radio has never been used, or its charge is depleted, it may be
charged by connecting the CD-48 Charger Cradle with the SAD-11B or SAD-
18B Battery Charger, as shown in the illustration. If 12V DC power is avail-
able, the supplied E-DC-19A DC Cable with 12 V Cigarette Lighter Plug may
be used for charging the battery. The SAD-11B or SAD-18B and E-DC-19A
will charge a completely discharged FNB-V105LI battery pack in approximate-
ly 3 hours.
The FNB-V105LI is a high performance Li-Ion battery providing high capacity
in a compact package.
CAUTION
To avoid risk of explosion and injury, FNB-V105LI battery pack should
only be removed, charged or recharged in non-hazardous environments.
4.3.1 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 bat-
tery cell damage. If the short is of sufcient duration, it is possible to melt bat-
tery components. Do not place a loose battery pack on or near metal surfaces
or objects such as paper clips, keys, tools, etc. When the battery pack is in-
stalled on the transceiver, the terminals that transfer current to the transceiver
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 consti-
tute 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;
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.
Keep the battery contacts clean and dry.

)
switch is held down, transmission time is limited to 5 min-
utes. This prevents prolonged (unintentional) transmissions. About 10 seconds
before automatic transmitter shutdown, a warning beep will sound from the
speaker. The transceiver automatically switches to the receiving mode, even
if the PTT
( )
switch is held down. Before transmitting again, the PTT
( )
switch must rst be released. This Time-Out-Timer (TOT) prevents a continu-
ous transmission that would result from an accidentally stuck PTT
( )
switch.
NOTE
The PTT
(

6.5 NOAA WEATHER CHANNELS
In the event of a major storm or other appreciable weather condition requiring
vessels at sea (or other bodies of water) to be notied, the NOAA (National
Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) broadcasts a 1050 Hz tone
which the HX380 can detect and alert you of pending storm warnings. The
1050 Hz tone, when detected, will produce a loud beep in the speaker of the
HX380, to signal that a Weather Alert Broadcast is being received.
1. To receive a NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)
weather broadcast, press and hold the
key. The
transceiver changes to the weather channel mode and
recalls the last used NOAA weather channel. This mode
consists of a preset memory bank containing the NOAA
weather channels.
2. Press the or key to change to other weather channels.
3. To exit from the weather channel mode, press and hold the key. The
transceiver will revert to the channel you were using prior to switching to the
weather channel mode.
6.5.1 NOAA WEATHER ALERT
In the event of extreme weather disturbances such as storms and hurricanes,
NOAA sends a “weather alert” consisting of a 1050 Hz tone, followed by
weather reports on the weather channels.
When a “weather alert” is received on a weather channel,
the transceiver emits a beep tone. Press the
key to
stop the beep tone and listen to the weather reports.
6.5.2 NOAA WEATHER ALERT TESTING
In order to test this system, NOAA broadcasts the 1050 Hz tone every
Wednesday sometime between 11 AM and 1 PM local time. You may use
this opportunity to test your HX380 periodically to conrm that the Weather
Alert feature is working, or for training crew members on how to congure the
HX380 to receive the NOAA Weather Alerts.

9. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS
Tables on the following pages list the VHF Marine Channel assignments for
U.S.A. 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 U.S.A. or Canadian
channel assignments whose counterparts in the International assignments
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 U.S.A, and Ca-
nadian 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 op-
erators on inter-coastal waterways and rivers. It is also used by marine vessels
in the vicinity of these bridges for navigation and for communicating 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 transmis-
sion. 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 automatically 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 geo-
graphic regions.
6.
Marine vessels equipped with VHF radios are required to monitor Channel 16.

11. INSTALLATION OF OPTION
11.1 FBA-40 ALKALINE BATTERY TRAY
FBA-40 is a battery tray that holds six AA size Alkaline batteries and is used
with the HX380 transceiver. When the FBA-40 is installed into the HX380 the
radio can withstand immersion in water up to 1.5 m (about 5Ft) for 30 minutes.
1. On the FBA-40, remove the battery case cover. Due to the battery case wa-
ter proof characteristics, it may be difcult to remove the battery tray case,
put a coin to the edge of the battery compartment (
) then pry open the
battery case cover.
2. Slide the six AA size Alkaline batteries into the FBA-40 Battery Case with
the Negative (–) side of the batteries touching the spring connections inside
the FBA-40 Battery Case.
3. Attach the battery cover to the FBA-40 Battery Case while being careful so
that o-ring is not twisted.
4. Insert the FBA-40 Battery Case into the battery compartment on the back
of the HX380 transceiver while tilting the Belt Clip outward, then push the
bottom side of the FBA-40 Battery Case until the Battery Case locks with
the Battery Pack Latch.
