status flag. The last selected special
call will be displayed. Scroll through

b. Using the numeric keypad, enter the
special call’s table location number
and then press SPC. The radio enters
special call mode. Table location num-
ber 1 is the last received individual
caller’s ID number. Table location
number 2 is the last received group
caller’s ID number on the selected

allow access to the programmed spe-
cial calls in the radio.
If no individual calls or group calls
have been received since the radio
was turned on, these first two (2)

"RANGE" will be displayed when the
SPC button is pressed and the radio
will then return to the group display.

mode, it will be transmitted in private
mode ("PVT" status flag on).
