Call procedure
When your system employs tone signaling (excluding CTCSS
and DTCS), the call procedure may be necessary prior to voice
transmission. The tone signalling employed may be a selec-
tive calling system which allows you to call specific station(s)
only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting you.
q
Select the desired TX code channel, 2/5-tone code,
Individual ID code* or Talkgroup ID code* according to
your System Operator’s instructions.
• This may not be necessary depending on programming.
• Refer to pgs. 14–16 for selection.
*Digital mode operation only.
w
Push the call key (assigned to one of the dealer program-
mable keys; except for the Digital mode operation) or [PTT].
e
After transmitting, the remainder of your communication
can be carried out in the normal fashion.
