cies within a selected range. The factory default scanning range is 144.0
to 148.0 MHz.

lower scan limit.
5. Rotate TUNE, press UP or DOWN on the microphone, or directly
enter the lower scan limit’s last five digits on the microphone’s key-
pad.

RECEIVING TRANSMISSIONS
To receive a transmission, turn on the HTX-212, adjust the volume and
squelch, and tune to the frequency you want to monitor. The HTX-212 dis-
plays BUSY, and the signal-strength indicator shows the relative signal
strength when it receives a signal.
Note: If BUSY appears, but you hear nothing from the speaker, be sure the
DTMF page and tone-squelch features are turned off and SQUELCH is
set correctly. To turn off DTMF page, press DTMF once. To turn off tone
squelch, press T-SQL until neither T nor T-SQL appears on the display.
See “Activating Subaudible Tone Transmit and Squelch” on Page 34.
