RECEIVING: I q Push [K ] to turn the power ON. w Push [CH UP] or [CH DN] to select a channel. e When receiving a signal, adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.
TRANSMITTING: r Hung off the microphone from the microphone hanger:
CTCSS or DTCS may be released ( appears). A priority channel may be selected automatically.
t Wait for the channel to become clear.
The channel is busy when appears.
Time-out timer After continuous transmission for a pre-programmed period, the time-out timer is activated causing the transceiver to stop transmitting and automatically select receive.
y While pushing and holding [PTT], speak into the microphone at your normal voice level. u Release [PTT] to receive.
Penalty timer Once the time-out timer is activated, transmission is further inhibited for a period determined by the penalty timer.
IMPORTANT: To maximize the readability of your signal: (1) pause briey after pushing [PTT], (2) hold the transceiver 15 to 20 cm from your mouth, then speak into the microphone with normal voice level.
OPERATION D DTMF transmission
If the transceiver has [DTMF] key, the automatic DTMF transmission function is available. Up to 7 DTMF channels may be available. q Push [DTMF] to select the display as at right. w Push [CH UP] or [CH DN] to select the desired DTMF channel. e Push and hold [DTMF] to transmit the DTMF code in the selected DTMF channel.
