■ Break-in communication
The break-in function allows you to break into a conversa-
tion, where the two original stations are communicating with 
call sign squelch enabled.
q While receiving an another station’s communication, push 
and hold [RX➝CS](CALL) for 1 sec. to set the communi-
cating station’s call sign.
 •  When a call sign has not been received correctly, error beeps 
sound and no call sign is set. Try to set the call sign of a com-
municating signal again, or set the call sign manually.
w Turn the Break-in function ON in the MENU screen opera-
tion (p. 107), then exit the MENU screen operation.
 • “BK” appears.
e When both stations are in standby, push [PTT] to transmit 
a break-in call.
 •  The programmed call sign station receives the break-in call as 
well as your call sign.
r Wait for the reply call from the station who receives the 
break-in call.
t After receiving the reply call, communicate normally.
y To cancel the break-in function, turn the Break-in function 
OFF in the MENU screen operation (p. 107).
• How to use the break-in?
While operating with the call sign squelch (p. 124), the 
squelch never opens 
(no audio sounds) even if a call is re-
ceived, unless your own call sign 
(“MY”) is specifi ed.
However, when the call including the “BK ON” signal 
(break-in call) is received, the squelch will open and audio 
sounds even if the call is specifi ed for another station.
