activity on the currently selected channel.
If the currently active TalkGroup is NOT a member of the RX Group that´s
assigned to the selected channel or even no RX Group is assigned to the selected
channel but Promiscuous mode IS activated, you will be able to hear any activity
that´s going on for that channel, as long as it will be received on the very same
TimeSlot as assigned to the currently selected channel.
Notes: If you are unable to assign ‘Promiscuous’ to your Radioddity GD-88, then you
are not using our latest CPS. Older versions of our CPS are not capable of
assigning it.
6.16 Repeater / Talk Around
When the repeater fails to work, or the radio exceeds the coverage of the repeater
but within the call range of other radio users, press the preset [Repeater / Talk
Around]-key or actively set ‘Menu → Parameters → Slot/Repeat → Repeat/off’ to
‘Talkaround’ and press the [PTT]-key to continue the communication. This is the
so-called Talk Around function.
6.17 Emergency Alarm
The emergency alarm function is mainly used in an emergency situation. Pressing
the preset [Emergency Alarm On/Off]-key will make an emergency alarm call or
stop sending an emergency alarm call.
There are 3 Emergency Alarm modes supported:
1. Emergency Alarm
2. Emergency Alarm & Call
3. Emergency Alarm & Voice
An alarm is a type of non-voice signaling that can trigger a prompt to another
radio. This function refers to the alarm behavior of the radio after it is activated.
The following types of alarms are possible:
Disable The radio will not send an alarm signal.
Standard The radio can send the alarm signal with voice & visual
prompts.
Mute The radio sends alarm signaling without audio or visual
prompts, and will not alert to any received audio.
Mute with voice The radio sends alarm signaling without audio or visual
prompts, but can send signal to the eligible channels.
Notes: Not used within amateur radio networks
