IMPORTANT:
To maximize the readability of your transmitted
signal at a receiver station, pause a second after pushing
[PTT], and then hold the microphone 5 to 10 cm from your
mouth and speak at your normal voice level.
NOTE for the Time-out Timer (TOT) function
The TOT function inhibits continuous transmission beyond
a preset time period after the transmission starts.
10 seconds before transmission is cut off, a beep sounds
to indicate the transmission will be cut off, and “TOT” is
displayed in the channel name field. You cannot transmit
again for 10 seconds after it is cut off.
