RADIO CALLS

REPEATER OR TALKAROUND
MODE

Talkaround Mode enables you to communicate
with another radio when either:

The repeater is not operating

–or–

Your radio is out of the repeater’s range but
within communicating distance of another
radio. An audible indicator is heard when
changing between modes.

To select either Repeater Mode or Talkaround
Mode:

Press the preprogrammed Repeater/
Talkaround
button (see page 13) to toggle
between Repeater Mode and Talkaround
Mode.

SETTING THE POWER LEVEL

Each channel in your radio has a predefined
transmit power level that can be changed.

High power

Low power

To set the power level, press the
preprogrammed Power Level button (see
page 13
) to toggle between low and high. A
dot appears on the display indicating high
power.

SETTING TIGHT OR NORMAL
SQUELCH

Use this feature to filter out nuisance
(unwanted) calls and/or background noise.
However, tightening squelch could cause calls
from remote locations to be filtered out as well.
In this case, normal squelch may be more
desirable.

Press the preprogrammed Squelch button
(see page 13) to toggle between tight and
normal squelch.
