Secure Operation

Note

Secure operation provides the highest level of commercially available voice security on trunked or conventional channels. Unlike other forms of security, Motorola digital encryption provides signalling that makes it virtually impossible for others to decode any part of an encrypted message.

Selecting Secure or Clear Transmissions

The Secure/Clear Switch (if programmed, see page 2) will set the transmit operation of the radio before the PTT Switch is pressed; the transmit operation cannot be changed while the PTT Switch is pressed.
