Status message with a time stamp
The radio can be configured to include a time stamp in a sent status
message. By default this feature is set to OFF.
The time stamp shows the time when the message was sent. If the
radio is in network mode but not within the network coverage area
when you send the status message, the message is saved in the
Outbox
folder and

is a buffer for five time stamp status messages. If the buffer is full
when you try to send a new status message,

Outbox
are
sent, beginning with the oldest message, when the radio re-enters

receive times are shown).
