Compander
If programmed by your dealer for a channel, the compander will remove excessive noise from transmitted signals, to provide higher clarity of signals.
Busy Channel Lockout (BCL)
On Conventional channels, if BCL is set up by your dealer, you will be unable to transmit if the channel is already in use. Use a different channel or wait until the channel becomes free.
If BCL Override has been programmed, you can transmit over the current signal:
1Press and hold the PTT switch.
• If the channel is already in use, a warning tone will sound.
2Quickly release and then press the PTT switch again.
3Speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal call.
Control Channel Hunt
On digital Trunking channels, the transceiver automatically searches for a control channel.
•While searching for a control channel, the antenna icon will flash and no signals can be received.
PTT ID
PTT ID is the transceiver unique ID code which is sent each time the PTT switch is pressed and/or released.
Note: PTT ID can be made only in analog operation.
