Receiving and Responding to a Radio Call

Once the channel, subscriber
alias or ID, or group alias or ID
is displayed, you can proceed
to receive and respond to
calls.

The green LED lights up
while the radio is transmitting
and blinks when the radio is
receiving.

NOTE: The green LED lights up while the radio is transmitting

and blinks rapidly when the radio is receiving a privacy-
enabled call.

To unscramble a privacy-enabled call, your radio must
have the same Privacy Key, or the same Key Value and
Key ID (programmed by your dealer) as the
transmitting radio (the radio you are receiving the call
from).

See Privacy on page 50 for more information.

configured as part of that group.

button to stop the current call from the transmitting radio and
free the channel for you to talk/respond.
