Advanced functions
Low Transmit Power
The 0.5W transmit power icon is located in the upper left corner of the base unit display.
When the BC Link 2.0 is transmitting at 0.5W power (FRS channels 8-14), the icon is
empty. When channels other than 8-14 are being used and the BC Link 2.0 is transmitting
at 2.0W power, the icon is full .
Button sound
When the button sounds are activated, the BC Link 2.0 beeps when any button is pressed
or when the user turns on the Smart Mic. These button sounds can be activated by pressing
the Menu button three times until the icon
and “ON” or “OFF” are displayed. Turn the
button sounds on or off using the up or down buttons. Accept by waiting five seconds or
pressing OK.
Roger beep
The Roger beep is a tone that sounds at the end of each transmission, when the PTT
button is released. The Roger beep is activated or deactivated by pressing the Menu
button four times until the Roger beep icon and “ON” or “OFF” are displayed. Turn the
Roger beep on or off using the up or down buttons. Accept by waiting five seconds or
pressing OK.
Weather channels
Weather channels can be activated by scrolling past channel 22. The BC Link 2.0 will
scan through all 11 weather channels automatically. It is also possible to scan manually by
pressing the p and q buttons within five seconds, before auto-scanning begins. Weather
channels can only be accessed within the U.S. Weather channels are receive-only channels,
which means that when the weather channel is activated, transmitting is not possible. When
a weather channel is active, the weather icon is displayed.
