STATUS MESSAGE
You can send and receive 2-digit Status messages (10 ~ 79) which may be decided
in your talk group. Messages can contain up to 16 alphanumeric characters.
A maximum of 9 received messages can be stored in the stack memory of your
transceiver. These saved messages can be reviewed after reception. If the
stack memory is full, the oldest message will be erased when a new message is
received. The mail icon ( ) lights when a message is stored in the stack
memory.
Note:
All stored messages will be cleared when the transceiver power is turned OFF.
