BASIC OPERATION
■ Call procedure
When your system employs tone signaling (excluding
CTCSS and DTCS), a call procedure may be necessary

may be a selective calling system which allows you to call
specific station(s) only and prevent unwanted stations from
contacting you.

cording to your System Operator’s instructions.

• Refer to pages. 10–11 for selection.
w Push [Call] (assigned to one of the dealer programmable
keys).
