Roger Beep Tone

The Roger Beep is a tone which is automatically transmitted whenever the
PTT button is released and the tone is enabled. This tone alerts the
receiving party that the transmission  has been terminated intentionally.
To enable and disable the Roger Beep tone:

- From GMRS standby mode, press the MODE Button 4 times (in FRS

mode, 3 times) until the flashing Roger Beep icon (  ) appears with

On

 or 

oF

.

- Press the Up or Down Button to select the tone on or off as desired.
- When enabled, the tone icon (   ) appears steady on the display.
- Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm selection.

VOX Selection Mode

This option enables you to have hands-free conversation. When using the
internal microphone/speaker or the supplied external microphone/head-
set (earbud), your voice or the signal is detected and the radio transmits
and receives automatically. Your voice or nearby sound is detected and
the radio transmits without the need to press the PTT button.
To set the radio for VOX operation:

- From GMRS/FRS standby mode,  press and hold the MODE button

for 3 seconds, or until the 

VOX

 icon appears on the display.

- To terminate VOX operation, press and hold the MODE button for at

least 3 seconds; the 

VOX

 indication will disappear.

Button Beep (Key Tone)

This feature allows the transceiver to sound a confirmation tone whenever
the following keys are pressed: Power On/Off/SCAN Button, Up/Down But-
tons and MODE Button. This feature is always on.
