Audible tones
The radio uses audible tones to alert you to its status:
■ Radio controls and keypress tones—the tones
and beeps you hear when you press your radio’s
keys or use the controls.
■ Incoming call tone—when the radio is receiving
a call.
If quiet is turned on, you will not hear any alert
tones (compliance radio only).
Some of the more common audible tones are
described below:
