1) ROGER BEEP (s key)

The ROGER BEEP sounds when the PTT switch (8) of the microphone

is released in order to let your correspondent speak. Historically as

CB is a “simplex” communication mode, it is not possible to speak

and listen at the same time (as it is the case with a telephone).

Once the conversation was over, he said “Roger” in order to pre-

vent his correspondent that it was his turn to talk. The word “Roger”

has been replaced by a signiﬁcant beep. That is where the name

“Roger beep” comes from.

Use the following procedure to activated or deactivated the ROGER

BEEP function:

- Turn on the power while pressing the s key (2a) to enable (rb on)

or disable (rb oF) the ROGER BEEP function.

- When function is activated, “

” appears on the display.

Note: The Roger beep also sounds in the loudspeaker if the KEY

BEEP function is active. If the KEY BEEP function is not active, only

the correspondent can hear the ROGER BEEP.

In PA mode the function is not allowed.

2) KEY BEEP (t key)

Some operations such as changing channels, pressure on keys etc.

are conﬁrmed by a beep tone. This beep tone can be activated
