➤ Receiving a sounding call:
When the radio is in the ALE mode and it receives a sounding call
from another station, the calling station name appears in the
display, preceded by the letter S to identify that the call is a
sounding call.
Within a few seconds, the radio automatically returns to the mode
used before the call was received.

➤ Receiving a bidirectional handshake call:
When the radio receives a bidirectional handshake call from another station, your radio
responds automatically, without your intervention. Within a few seconds, the radio
automatically returns to the mode used before the call was received.
If the bidirectional handshake includes a message, the calling station name and the received
message are stored in the stack, and the STAK (F3) function key appears.
➤ To answer an incoming call:
Press any key (including PTT, but not ESC) to accept the call. The
calling station name stops blinking, and is displayed steadily. The
alert tone is no longer heard. The radio is now in the link state with
the calling station.

When an AllCall is received, no link is actually established but you can hear the
calling station.
If the received call includes a message, an exclamation mark
precedes the station name, and the name is followed by a colon
and the message.
