Making a call
1 Select the required channel or scan group.
2 Check that the channel is clear. If the green LED is glowing,
the channel is busy and you may not be able to transmit.
3 Once the channel is clear (the green LED is off), lift the
microphone off the microphone clip.
4 Hold the microphone about 5cm (2 inches) from
your mouth.
5 Press and hold the PTT key to transmit.
6 Speak clearly into the microphone and release the PTT
key when you have finished talking.
While you are transmitting, the red LED glows.
Transmit timer
Your radio may have a transmit timer that limits the amount
of time you can transmit continuously. When the transmit
timer is about to expire, the red LED flashes and the radio
gives three beeps. You must release the PTT before you can
transmit again.
Your radio may be unable to transmit for a short time after
the transmit timer has expired.
Receiving a call
When there is valid activity on your radio’s currently selected
channel or group, the radio then unmutes and you can
hear the call.
