Chapter 5: Digital Selective Calling (DSC)	41

➤To ignore the Group Call:

Press the CLEAR/WX key. The alert tone is muted, the Group Call is interrupted and the normal screen appears on the display.

➤To accept the Group Call:

Push the CH knob. The alert tone is muted (if you have not already pressed another key). The LCD indicates that the channel has been changed to the one designated by the caller.

If the caller requests that you change to an unsupported working channel (channel 75, for example) the message INVALID CHANNEL appears on the LCD. The radio is unable to comply with the channel change request but the call is registered in the Call Log.

No acknowledgement is sent to the caller. You can establish voice communications on the channel shown in the LCD by pressing the PTT key.

Notes: (1) DSC Call data is stored in the first available slot in the Call Log.

(2)Pressing the 16/9 key cancels the channel change request and tunes the radio to channel 16.

(3)If 5 minutes elapse before the Group Call is accepted or rejected, the radio automatically declines the call and the radio reverts to the original channel.
