SENDING A SPECIAL CALL
SCAN Model Radio
1.Press the SPC key to put the radio into Special Call mode and provide access to a preprogrammed special call list. Each selection from the list is programmed with either an individual number, an interconnect number or as a DTMF selection, which simply causes the radio to acquire a channel and request a interconnect line. The SYStem field will display "SP" and the GRP (Group) field will display the current selection number from the special call list, if no items are programmed in the special call list then the field will be blank. The "S" and "PC" icons will also be illuminated while in the Special Call mode.
2.Press the SELECT Ior Jbuttons to increment or decrement through the special call list.
NOTE
