Transmitting
Before transmitting, check to see if the channel is already in
use ('BuSy' will be displayed and the Led on the top of the
radio will be green) . If the channel is busy, you should wait
until it is clear before transmitting .
To transmit, press the Push-To-Talk (PTT) switch on the
left-hand side of the radio . Hold the radio about 5-8 cms
from your face with the antenna vertical and speak into the
built-in microphone located just below the speaker . When
talking, speak at a normal voice level . The microphone is quite
sensitive so it is not necessary to raise your voice or shout .
Receiving
Note:
your radio may be programmed with options that
could affect the way your radio behaves when it receives a
call from another radio .
Normal Reception
your radio will normally be muted (squelched) so that it is
quiet when there are no signals . When a transmission is
received, the radio will automatically unmute itself to allow
you to hear the call . When receiving a signal, adjust the
volume control as desired for a comfortable listening level .
The BUSY Indicator
Whenever the channel is active, the BuSy indicator will
appear on the display and the green Led on the top of the
radio will light . However, depending on the muting options
selected on your radio, you may not always hear any sound
from the speaker . This can happen when others are sharing
the channel but their calls are not meant for you . For this
reason it is important that you visually check that the
channel is not busy before making a call to ensure you do
not accidentally talk over someone else .
