hold CALL.
1 View the LQA screen for the best channel/mode to use.
1 Press CALL to continue the call.

Making a Channel Test call in an ALE/CALM network
To make a Channel Test call in an ALE/CALM network:
1 Press CALL.
1 Type the ALE NET or Group Selective address syntax of the stations for which you
want to replace the LQA information, then select Channel Test? as the call type.
1 Select the ALE/CALM network in which you want to make the call.
The LQA screen displays the best channel for the network, including the LQA score
as a percentage, and the BER/SINAD scores at the local and remote stations.

NET address as the network is already defined by the NET.
