• If a signal is received on an Open channel (one that is not tagged with
Q) the signal will be heard in the usual way.
If a signal containing your SelCall Ident is received on any channel – Open or QUIET
– the QUIET mode will be cancelled, and the alarm will beep to alert you to the call.

SCANNING IN QUIET MODE

Receiving signals while scanning in the QUIET mode
If a signal is received on an open channel, the scan will pause while the channel
is busy to allow you to hear the signal and will resume after the channel becomes
clear. If you are scanning in Group Scan mode, the radio may switch between the
open channel and the Priority Channel – this is normal.
If a signal is received on a Quiet channel but your SelCall Ident is not detected, the
signal will be ignored and scanning will continue.
If a signal containing your SelCall Ident is received on any channel (either Open or
Quiet), the scan and QUIET modes will be cancelled and the receiver will stay on
the busy channel. The alarm will then beep to alert you to the call and the caller’s
Ident or Alpha Name will be displayed. The channel will now be open for normal
communications.
