NOTE
Conventional Aegis or encrypted channels require Channel Guard on the channel to operate correctly.
Clear Modes
Aegis clear, ProVoice clear and Voice Guard clear modes are identical voice modes in which the radio transmits and receives only clear (analog) voice signals. These analog signals are
AEGIS/ProVoice Digital Mode
Aegis/ProVoice digital mode allows the radio to transmit and receive digitized voice signals. These digital signals provide improved weak signal performance and they cannot be easily monitored with a standard receiver. Groups and channels programmed for Aegis or ProVoice digital operation transmit only digital signals. Private calls cannot be received or transmitted when the radio is in the Aegis or ProVoice digital mode because the radio does not know the cryptographic key used.
