1 Press and hold the PTT switch.
2 Enter the code of the transceiver you want to call
or enter a Group code on the keypad.
If desired, you can send codes the same way you
make DTMF calls {page 15}. Both manual methods
can be used or you can store codes in memory,
then dial them from a memory location.
“CALL” appears on the display and the LED
indicator lights red.
3 Use the transceiver the same as in a regular call;
press the PTT switch to transmit and release it to
receive.
The called transceiver’s squelch will turn OFF while
you are transmitting. After you stop transmitting,
the squelch will turn back ON after a pre-set time
period elapses. This time period is programmed by
your dealer.
When you release the PTT switch, squelch turns
OFF and the LED indicator flashes orange. When
you receive a signal, the LED indicator lights green.
When the signal drops out, the LED indicator
flashes orange again. If no signal is received for a
pre-determined time, squelch turns back ON.
Pressing the key programmed as Monitor or
Squelch at any time will turn the squelch back ON.
