Special Radio Features
PTT-ID Receive
The PTT-ID receive feature allows you to see the radio ID number of the radio
you are currently receiving. This ID can be a maximum of eight characters and
can be viewed by both the receiving radio and the dispatcher. On trunking
radios, pressing
<
or
>
will replace the displayed ID with the softkey menu
selections; pressing
O
will bring back the ID display.
PTT-ID Transmit
The PTT-ID transmit feature is a per channel feature where your radio’s ID
number is automatically sent every time the
PTT Switch
is pressed. Depending
upon how your radio was programmed, your radio’s ID can be transmitted at
the beginning of a transmission, at the end of a transmission, or at the
beginning and ending of a transmission. For digital voice transmissions, your
radio’s ID is sent during the voice message.
If your radio has MDC-1200™ signalling and the ID is sent before the voice
transmission, you will hear a tone until the ID transmission is completed; this
helps you avoid talking while the ID code is being transmitted.
