Press (or press and hold) the assigned
PF
key to toggle the TA (Talk Around) scan
feature “On” and “Off.”
While TA scan is enabled, the transceiver will search both the transmit and receive
frequencies. When a signal is encountered on the receive frequency, the trans-
ceiver will pause until the signal disappears. When a signal is encountered on the
transmit frequency, the transceiver will check for activity on the receive frequency
every few seconds (interval programmed by your Vertex Standard dealer).
Note
: The TA Scan feature does not activate on the Simplex Channel.

Press (or press and hold) the assigned
PF
key to activate the Talk Around feature
when you are operating on duplex channel systems (separate receive and transmit
frequencies, utilizing a “repeater” station). The Talk Around feature allows you to
bypass the repeater station and talk directly to a station that is nearby. This feature
has no effect when you are operating on “simplex” channels, where the receive
and transmit frequencies are already the same.
When the Talk Around feature is activated, the Transceiver Status Indicator (“
A
”,
“
B
” or “
C
”) will illuminate, if the “
Talk Around
” status is assigned to one of the
Transceiver Status Indicator.
Note that your Vertex Standard may have made provision for “Talk Around” chan-
nels by programming “repeater” and “Talk Around” frequencies on two adjacent
channels. If so, the key may be used for one of the other Pre-Programmed Func-
tions.
Note
: The Talk Around feature does not activate on the Simplex Channel.
