Its performance can be affected by many factors including equipment failure or defect, environmental conditions, and improper handling or use. [. . . ] If the SEEK mode has found a channel with traffic, and you wish to communicate with the other party, press the PTT switch to cancel the SEEK mode and remain on that channel. 2) Memory Seek To seek only the channels that have been stored to memory, press the MEM key and then press the SEEK key while "MEM" is blinking (within 2 seconds). 3. 3. 7 Monitor Mode The monitor mode consists of the Dual Watch and Tri-Watch functions. 1) Dual Watch Mode To start the Dual Watch mode, select the desired working channel and press the MON key. The MON indicator will appear on the display, and the working channel and the 16plus (priority) channel will be monitored. In the Dual Watch mode, the current channel being monitored will be shown in the large LCD channel segments, and the channel in standby mode will be shown in the small LCD channel segments. 2) Tri-Watch mode To start the Tri-Watch mode, you must first be in the Dual Watch mode, then press the MEM key. In addition to the two channels already being monitored, the last used WX channel will also be monitored for severe weather alert broadcasts. If a weather alert broadcast is detected, the RAY106 will emit an alarm and the WX indicator will begin to blink. The Tri-Watch mode will then be canceled and the radio will switch to the WX channel to monitor the severe weather broadcast. 3. 3. 8 RAY106 Marine Channels and Their Usage Caution : Operation on channels not designated for use by your classification of craft, or in International or Canadian frequency mode while operating in US territorial waters is a violation of FCC Rules and Regulations and may result in severe penalties.
