a short tone and “SYS SRCH” on the bottom line of the display (see
following illustration).
The transceiver then attempts to access, in succession, other systems
that have a group programmed for telephone calls. As each system is
accessed, a beep sounds. If a system is accessed, the new system/group is
selected and a dial tone sounds. The telephone call must then be placed
within a few seconds or normal operation resumes. If no system could be
accessed, the intercept tone sounds, “NO PHONE” is displayed, the
system/group does not change, and the feature deactivates.
This mode can also be canceled at any time by pressing any front
