Outgoing Calls
When you have selected zone and mode, you are
ready to transmit.
Lift the microphone out of its holder and press the
transmit key PTT (F) while talking, release it while lis-
tening. Speak in a normal tone of voice, keeping a dis-
tance of 5 -10 cm (2-4") from the microphone. While
transmitting the red indicator (B) will light.
Conventional only:
If the orange indicator is lit, the channel is busy. Wait
for the indicator to turn off before transmitting.
Trunking only:
If the busy tone sounds, release the PTT (F) and wait

heard, press the PTT (F) within 3 seconds to transmit
the call again.
If your radio is equipped with a time out timer, a warn-

Channels within a scan list may be assigned priority

Priority 1: Most important
Priority 2: Second most important
Non-Priority: Normal scan list member without

with the highest priority. If a channel/talkgroup with a
higher priority becomes active while the radio is listen-

button (8) or via a menu as previously described.
