4. If using Low power is not effective, select High power (5 watts: “ ” icon

5. When receiving a signal, wait until the incoming signal stops before trans-
mitting. The transceiver cannot transmit and receive simultaneously.
6. Press and hold the PTT (Push-To-Talk:
) switch to
transmit. During transmission, the “ ” indicator will
appear on the display.

6.3.1 TRANSMIT TIME - OUT TIMER
(
TOT
)
While the PTT (
) switch is held down, transmission time is limited to 5 min-
utes. This prevents prolonged (unintentional) transmissions. About 10 sec-
onds before automatic transmitter shutdown, a warning beep will sound from
the speaker. The transceiver automatically switches to the receiving mode,
even if the
PTT (
) switch is held down. Before transmitting again, the
PTT
( ) switch must first be released. This Time-Out-Timer (TOT) prevents a con-
tinuous transmission that would result from an accidentally stuck PTT (
)
switch.
NOTE
The PTT (
) switch is disabled for 10 seconds after the transceiver
automatically switches to the receiving mode by the TOT feature.
