SELECTING A CHANNEL

To select a channel, turn the Channel Selector Knob until you reach the desired channel. An audible voice indicates the selected channel.

Each channel has its own Frequency, Interference Eliminator Code and Scan Settings.

TALKING AND MONITORING

It is important to monitor for traffic before transmitting to avoid ‘talking over’ someone who is already transmitting

To monitor, long press and hold the SB1(*) button to access channel traffic. If no activity is present, you will hear ‘static’. To release, press SB1 again. Once channel traffic has cleared, proceed with your call by pressing the PTT button. When transmitting, the LED Indicator stays solid red.
