Requesting a Call from your Despatcher
Note:
Your radio needs to be programmed to call your despatcher for this function to
operate.
Press the
Despatcher
key (

peeeeee
, lasting three seconds. This places your call in the despatcher’s queue and the
despatcher will call you back as soon as possible.
If the call is not accepted, you hear a single low-pitched tone,
brrrrrrr
, and one of the ‘call fail’
messages is displayed.
Unanswered Calls

sounds tones and displays the following messages:
