button. The second line of the information window will flash “*CALL
ALERT-S*.” Follow the above procedure in Call Alert for selecting a unit ID and sending.
Radio Check
When the

the

button depressed and lit. The second line of the information window flashes “Radio
Check.” The right side of this line shows either the ID displayed on the top line of the queue,
“Unit _ _ _ _” or the last ID used. Refer to Figure 35. Selecting a unit ID for transmission is
accomplished in one of the three ways discussed previously in the Call Alert section. However, since this
call type is designed to determine if a particular radio is within range, group and wildcard ID’s are not
permitted.
After pressing the
TRANSMIT
button, Radio Check behaves in the same fashion as Call Alert.
