ARTS™ constitutes a form of “remote control” operation that may be re-
stricted to certain frequencies. U.S. users should confirm the current status
of §97.201(b) of the FCC’s rules governing the 144 MHz band of the Ama-
teur service before utilizing this feature.
ARTS™ Polling Time Options

ARTS™ Alert Beep Options
The ARTS™ feature allows two kinds of alert beeps (with the additional option of turning
them off), so as to alert you to the current status of ARTS™ operation. Depending on your
location and the potential annoyance associated with frequent beeps, you may choose the
Beep mode which best suits your needs. The choices are:
INRANG
:
The beeps are issued only when the radio first confirms that you are within
range, but does not re-confirm with beeps thereafter.
ALWAYS
: Every time a polling transmission is received from the other station, the alert
beeps will be heard.
OFF
:
No alert beeps will be heard; you must look at the display to confirm current
ARTS™ status.

Beep mode, use the following procedure:
