■ Call procedure
When your system employs tone signalling (excluding
CTCSS and DTCS), this call procedure may be necessary
prior to voice transmission. The tone signalling employed may
be a selective calling system which allows you to call specific
station(s) only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting
you.
q Select the desired TX code channel or 2/5-tone code
according to your System Operator’s instructions.
• This may not be necessary depending on programming.
• Refer to pages 14 or 15 for selection.
w Push [Call] (assigned to one of the dealer programmable
keys)
e After transmitting, the remainder of your communication
can be carried out in the normal fashion.
■ Receiving and transmitting
NOTE: Transmitting without an antenna may damage the
transceiver. See (p. 1) for accessory attachments.
Receiving:
q Rotate [VOL] to turn the power ON.
w Push [CH Up] or [CH Down], or rotate [ROTARY SELEC-
TOR]* to select the conventional system channel, in se-
quence.

e When receiving a call, adjust the audio output level to a
comfortable listening level.
Transmitting:
Wait for the channel to become clear to avoid interference.
q While pushing and holding [PTT], speak into the micro-
phone at a normal voice level.

scribed at the previous page may be necessary.
w Release [PTT] to return to receive.
