Stopping a Radio Call
This feature allows you to stop an ongoing Group or
Private Call to free the channel for transmission. For
example, when a radio experiences a “stuck
microphone” condition where the PTT button is
inadvertently pressed by the user.
Your radio must be programmed to allow you to use
this feature.
1 Press the programmed Transmit Interrupt
Remote Dekey button, while on the relevant
channel.
2 Wait for acknowledgement.
If successful, the radio sounds a positive indicator
tone and the display shows Remote Dekey
Success, indicating that the channel is now free.
If unsuccessful, the radio sounds a negative
indicator tone and the display shows Remote
Dekey Failed.
On the interrupted radio, the display shows Call
Interrupted, and the radio sounds a negative
indicator tone until the PTT button is released, if it is
transmitting an interruptible call that is stopped via
this feature.
Talkaround
You can continue to communicate when your
repeater is not operating, or when your radio is out of
the repeater’s range but within talking range of other
radios.
This is called “talkaround”.
Note: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus
and Linked Capacity Plus.
The Talkaround setting is retained even after
powering down.
You can toggle between talkaround and repeater
modes by pressing the programmed Repeater/
Talkaround button or using the radio menu as
described next.
