MDC 1.200 system operation
The MDC 1200 sgnalng system enhances your trans-
cever’s capabltes. It allows PTT ID*, Emergency sgnalng,
and recevng Rado Check. Also, the dspatcher can stun
and revve transcevers on the system.
An addtonal feature of MDC 1200 system found n Icom
transcevers s called alasng. Each transcever on the system
has a unque ID number. Alasng allows the substtuton of an
alphanumerc name for ths ID number. For transmt, you can
use ths alas to select a transcever to call. For receve, the
alas of the callng staton s dsplayed nstead of the ID.
