1.When PTT is pressed, the radio will generate an error beep because your dealer or communications coordinator has programmed the radio to not allow transmission while the radio is in scan mode.

2.When PTT is pressed, the radio will switch to and transmit on the priority 1 channel, priority 2 channel or other dealer programmed channel regardless of the current receive state. This mode may be referred to as priority only transmit.

If you press PTT, while the radio is scanning channels, the radio will switch to and transmit on the priority 1 channel, priority 2 channel or other dealer programmed channel. This mode may be referred to as (priority) talkback transmit.
