Selcall
Selcall (short for Selective Call) allows you to make and
receive calls to/from another radio easily and directly, by a
simple method of digital signalling. Selcall allows you to
send a coded alarm signal to alert a specific radio user that
they are being called. If the Selcall is received successfully
by the other radio user, their set will automatically transmit
a positive confirmation alarm back to your set.
For you to be able to use Selcall, the radio which you wish
to communicate with must also have the Selcall function.
The HF-90 uses a Selcall format which is compatible with
all major Australian brands and Telstra Radphone Services.
Please refer to the end of Section 6.1 for instructions on how
to program the Selcall ID number.
To send a
Selcall use the
DTMF keypad on
your mic./
handset
(or front panel - if
using HF-90 with
avionics interface).
This display shows that Selcall has been
