13.9 DIRECT MODE OPERATION

The direct mode (or talk-around) provides short range, line of sight communications. One of the buttons

on the control unit must be pre-programmed for this feature to function.

1. Make sure the radio is ON and then select the desired conventional system and channel.

2. Press the pre-programmed button to toggle the talk-around function ON.

3. Ensure that the channel is not busy by pressing the c (System version) or C (Scan

version) to briefly disable any channel decoding and unmute the receiver or observe the unlit BSY

indicator. If the Channel Busy Lockout feature is programmed for the selected channel, the radio

will not transmit when the channel is busy.

4. Press and hold the PTT button. The TX indicator will light and a short beep sounds (if pre-

programmed) indicating that communication can begin.

5. Release the PTT button when the transmission is complete and listen for a reply.

6. When the communications is completed, press the pre-programmed button to toggle the talk-

around function OFF.

13.10 LAST SCANNED CHANNEL RECALL

The Last Scanned Channel Recall feature (Conventional and P25 Conventional only) can be used to recall

the last scanned channel from the scan list when it is not the currently selected channel. Pressing < twice

when the radio is actively receiving or three times when the radio is not receiving. The selected channel

will change to the last scanned channel from the conventional system’s scan list.
