TALKAROUND

In your communications network, you may be using a repeater to cover a larger area than what is possible with your radio. However, you can communicate with another radio within your radio’s range without going through the repeater by using the Talkaround feature. This is especially useful when the repeater is down

Press the programmed Repeater/Talkaround button to toggle between the options of making or not making a call through the repeater. A positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is in talkaround mode, while a negative indicator tone indicates that the radio is in repeater mode.

SQUELCH

If a particular channel receives many unwanted calls coming from radios that do not belong to your communications group and are some distance away, or the “background noise” is excessive, you can try to filter these transmissions out by tightening the channel’s squelch. However, tightening squelch could cause calls from members of your communications group that are farther away to be filtered out as well.
