When a duplicate message from the same station is

received, an error beep sounds. In addition, “dM” and a

call sign appear on the display.

• When a message to other stations is received, “oM”

appears at the bottom left of the display.

This transceiver beeps each time it receives a new or

duplicate message. You may access Menu 1–5–3

(BEEP) to change this setting. The default is “ALL”.

Note:

◆

This transceiver allows you to receive a message also when the

SSID does not match. However, it will not return a reception

acknowledgment.

◆

When a message addressed to you is received, the transceiver

display and keypad are illuminated. If you do not press any key in

approximately 5 seconds, the light goes off.
