The PTT button   on the side of the radio serves two basic purposes:
• While a call is in progress, the PTT button allows the radio to transmit to other radios in the call.
Press and hold down PTT button to talk. Release the PTT button to listen. The microphone is
activated when the PTT button is pressed.
• While a call is not in progress, the PTT button is used to make a new call. See Methods to Make a
