Transmitting
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.
Be sure to enter the ID or Group code, followed by
the Intermediate code of the transceiver you want
to call. If desired, you can also enter a message
code of up to 5 digits.
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.
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.
