EFJohnson 7243 LTR-Net Portable UHF manual Conventional Operation, Receiving a Standard Group Call

STANDARD GROUP CALLS

•If the radio system could not be accessed because of an out-of-range condition or some other reason, the intercept tone sounds (see page 52) and “NO ACESS” is indicated in the display. The PTT switch must then be released and pressed again to make another access attempt.

•When responding, busy or no access conditions may also occur, the same as when placing a call because the radio system is re-accessed for each transmission with these calls.

Conventional Operation

•If the channel is busy and the Transmit Disable On Busy feature is programmed (see page 50), “DSBL BSY” is indicated in the display and the transmitter is disabled. Any channel activity is heard while the PTT switch is pressed.

•Otherwise, busy and out-of-range conditions are not indicated and speaking can begin when the PTT switch is pressed (if the channel is not busy). If the proceed tone is enabled on conventional systems, it indicates when speaking can begin but does not indicate that the channel is free or has been successfully accessed.
