SELCALL/ALE OPERATION
2001 NEW
Selcall or ALE
Selcall uses a 4 or 6-digit ID address and allows you
to make individual or group calls. The ALE (automatic
link establishment) is a system which automatically se-
lects the best frequency for the time of day, destination
and propagation, and establishes a communication
link. The IC-F8101 ALE system compiles with basic
requirements of FED-STD-1045A.
