Receive message memory
All received messages are automatically saved to the memory and
filed according to category, DISTRESS or ORDINARY. The re-
ceive message memory can store
up to 50 messages (numbered
1 to 50) of each category on a first-in, fist-out basis. This means
each time the unit receives a message it saves it as log no.1 and
changes the log no. of all previously received messages by one.
When the memory is full the oldest file is deleted.
