3.5  Dual  Watch  

Because  the  KRT2  radio  contains  only  one  receiver,  DUAL  watch  is  achieved  by  
alternating  between  the  active  and  standby  frequencies.  
 
The  DUAL  button  activates  and  deactivates  the  dual  watch  function.  Deactivation  
can  also  take  place  by  pressing  either  the  FREQ  or  MEMORY  buttons.  
 
The  frequencies  to  be  watched,  should  be  selected  prior  to  the  DUAL  watch  
selection.  
Scanning  of  frequencies  is  only  possible  when  differentiating  between  radio  noise  
and  radio  transmissions.  This  can  be  achieved  with  the  squelch  system  set  to  a  
value  of  02  or  higher.  
 
There  must  be  radio  noise  suppression  in  order  to  recognize  reception.  SQ  must  
be  02  or  higher.  
 
When  DUAL  watch  is  activated,  DUAL  is  displayed  on  the  lowest  line.  The  pointer  
next  to  the  DUAL  display  indicates  the  frequency  on  which  there  is  reception.  
   
The  Active  frequency  always  has  priority,  so  the  receiver  remains  on  the  Active  
frequency  as  long  as  there  is  reception  on  the  Active  frequency.    
 
When   there   is   no   reception   on   both   the   Active   frequency   and   the   Standby  
frequency  the  receiver  scans  both  frequencies  5  times  per  second.    
 
When   there   is   reception   on   the   Standby   frequency   the   receiver   stays   on   the  
Standby  frequency,  however  it  switches  to  the  Active  frequency  every  2  seconds  
for  0.3  seconds.  When  reception  is  detected  on  the  Active  frequency  the  receiver  
stays  on  the  Active  frequency.
