Operation - Special Features
Tone Calling (Making a Selcall Call)
Tone Calling allows you to selectively call other radios.
For convenience, the Selcall ID of the radio you are going to call should be in the Selcall
ID memory (see Storing Sellcall IDs of other users to the ID Memory p.37).
If not then the Selcall ID can be manually entered for this call.
To Call:
1. Select the channel that you and your group agreed to use for Selective Calling.
2. Press and hold
[SELCALL]
for 2 seconds.
A double beep tone will sound and the last stored ID or last transmitted ID will be
displayed.
3. Use
/
to select the desired Selcall ID.
If the desired Selcall ID is not stored in the ID memory you can manually enter the ID as
follows;
a) Press
[SQL]
to begin ID edit. The 5th digit of the ID flashes.
b)
Use or to shift between digits. A 6th digit (for 6 tone Selcall) is available
and indicated by a ‘_’.
c)
Press
/
to select the desired ID.
4. Press
[SELCALL]
to transmit the Selcall.
CAL will display when transmitting the Selcall.
An acknowledge tone coming from the called radio will be received if you have
successfully made contact. The acknowledge tone for the UH8080S is a succession of
three low tone beeps.
Receiver Quiet (TSQ) Mode
Puts the receiver in the QUIET mode (also known as the Tone Squelch (TSQ) mode)
for the selected channel. When activated, the transceiver prevents any unwanted
conversations in the channel from being heard unless the call is specifically directed to
you and the Selcall ID required to open the QUIET condition has been received.
NOTE
Under this condition,
PTT
is temporarily disabled. If you wish to use the
same Channel for normal communication, simply remove the channel
from QUIET mode.
