Privacy
If enabled, this feature helps to prevent eavesdropping by
unauthorized users on a channel by the use of a software based
scrambling solution. The signaling and user identification
portions of a transmission are not scrambled.
Your radio must have privacy enabled on the channel to send a
privacy-enabled transmission, although this is not a necessary
requirement for receiving a transmission. While on a privacy
enabled channel, the radio is still able to receive clear
(unscrambled) transmissions.Your radio supports only Basic
Privacy.
To unscramble a privacy-enabled call or data transmission, your
radio must be programmed to have the same Privacy Key as
the transmitting radio. If your radio receives a scrambled call
that is of a different Privacy Key, you will hear a garbled
transmission. The LED lights up solid green while the radio is
transmitting and blinks green rapidly when the radio is receiving
an ongoing privacy-enabled transmission.
NOTE: Some radio models may not offer this Privacy feature.
Check with your dealer or system administrator for
more information.
Procedure:
Press the programmed Privacy button to toggle privacy on or
off.

transmission. While on an analog scrambling-enabled channel,
the radio is NOT able to receive clear (unscrambled)
transmissions.

toggled via the programmable button.
