Repeat Hold Timer (Programming Software Only)
The Repeating Hold Timer is used to prevent the PTT from being used to transmit
too frequently. When the PTT on the radio is released after transmitting in repeater
mode, the hold time prevents the unit from transmitting for a predermined interval
while waiting for a response. If no valid QT/DQT is detected within the hold time,
the transmitter will release the hold and allow the PTT to transmit. The repeating hold
timer sets the hold time for the transmitter to resume transmitting 100ms-5000ms (5
seconds) after the received QT/DQT signal disappears. This function is only accessible
and configured through the KG-1000G programming software.
