Using the Caller Stack

The caller stack stores information about unanswered calls. The stack entry contains the self-address of the calling station, and any message sent by the calling station when it sent the call set up request. The stack can contain up to 10 calls.

The radio records an address in the stack only once, even if the same caller made several unanswered calls. However, if the same caller sent calls with different messages, all such calls will be saved in the stack.

If you see the word STAK next to the F3 key, the stack includes at least one call you never viewed before.

The stack is arranged in FIFO order, that is, the first address that enters the stack is also the first that you see on the display.

To view the calls in the stack:

1.Press STAK (F3).

The radio displays information on the total number of calls in the stack, and information on the first call. If the number of characters exceeds the available space, press <->(F4) to activate the view mode.

2.Use the UP/DOWN keys to view any additional calls in the stack.

To return a call to a station registered in the stack:

1.Press MENU to display the Menu screen.

2.Press STAK (F3).

3.Use the UP/DOWN keys to scroll to the required call.

4.Press CALL (F1).

5.Press PAGE (F2) if you want to attach a message when you reply to the call.

6.Press CHAN (F3) if you want the call to be initiated on a specific channel in the currently used net.

The CHAN (F3) key is displayed only if the radio is in the ALE mode.

Note

7. Press SEND (F1) or ENTER to initiate the call.

 

After initiating a call to a station, its page in the stack is

 

automatically deleted, together with all other calls from the same
