GETTING STARTED
MONITOR
It is important to monitor traffic before
transmitting to ensure that you do not “talk
over” someone who is already transmitting.
Silent Monitor
Open Squelch Monitor
Note: Depending on how your radio has been
programmed, per channel for transmit
and receive conditions, when the
microphone has been taken off-hook,
the radio will go into Open Squelch
mode.
1 A short press of the preprogrammed
Monitor button places the radio in Silent
Monitor mode.
• You hear a high-pitched tone.
2 A short press of the Monitor button cancels
Silent Monitor mode and returns the radio to
normal operation.
1 To place the radio in Open Squelch mode,
press and hold the preprogrammed Monitor
button until you hear a high-pitched tone.
• If no activity is present, you will hear
“white noise.”
2 Momentarily press the Monitor button to
return to normal operation.
