when the PTT switch is released after the transmitter has been disabled. If
the PTT switch is pressed during the penalty time, the time-out indication
occurs again. A beep sounds when the penalty timer expires and the

Conversation Timer
A conversation timer can be programmed on conventional channels

each transmission as with the time-out timer. This timer is reset when the
time between transmissions exceeds the penalty time just described. A

When it expires, the transmitter is disabled and a warning tone sounds.
The transmitter remains disabled for the length of the penalty time, and a
beep sounds when it can be keyed again.

direct communication with a mobile without going through a repeater.
Repeater talk-around can be selected if the Repeater Talk-Around
option switch is programmed. When talk-around is enabled by this
switch, the
icon is displayed and “RTA ON” is flashed in the display.
Then when it is disabled by pressing the switch again, that icon is no
longer displayed and “RTA OFF” is flashed. Changing channels or
turning power off does not change the selected talk-around mode.
Power Output Select
If the High/Low Power option switch is programmed and power
selection is permitted on the current channel, either high or low trans-

you to transmit longer distances but uses more battery power, and the
