Stopping a Radio Call
This feature allows you to stop an ongoing Group or Private Call to free the channel for transmission. For example, when a radio experiences a “stuck microphone” condition where the PTT button is inadvertently pressed by the user.
Your radio must be programmed to allow you to use this feature.
Procedure:
While on the required channel:
1Press the programmed Transmit Interrupt Remote Dekey button.
2Wait for acknowledgment.
3The radio sounds a positive indicator tone, indicating that the channel is now free.
OR
The radio sounds a negative indicator tone, indicating that the radio is unable to free the channel.
Your radio sounds a negative indicator tone until you release the PTT button, if it is transmitting an interruptible call that is stopped via this feature. On an interrupted radio with a display, the display shows Call Interrupted.
