During interruptions in service (such as a power failure), you can continue to

communicate directly with other transceivers without the use of a repeater, as
long they are not too far away or there are no geographical obstacles in the way.

or OFF.

CRAMBLER
Note:
Your dealer can activate the built-in scrambler function, or they can add a more secure
optional scrambler board to your transceiver. Ask your dealer for details.
The built-in scrambler prevent others from easily listening in on your calls. When
activated, the transceiver distorts your voice so that anybody listening to your
conversation will not be able to clearly hear what you are saying.
In order for members of your own group to hear your call while you are using the
scrambler, all members must activate their scrambler functions.
Press the key programmed as
Scrambler
to toggle the Scrambler function ON or
OFF.
• “Sr” appears on the display while the Scrambler is activated.
When using an optional scrambler board, you can change the internal and
external scrambler codes:
1
Press and hold the key programmed as
Scrambler
for 2 seconds.
• “co” (code) appears on the display, followed by the current scrambler code.
2
Press
<B
and
C>
to select your desired scrambler code.
3
Press
S
or to store the new setting.
• After changing your scrambler code, be sure to inform all of your group members of
the new code so they can also reset their transceivers. The scrambler function will
not work with transceivers set up with different scrambler codes.
