Menu Option.............
When you access the Menu, the
first available channel appears in
the option line. To change, scroll
through the pre-sets and confirm
your choice with the Select button.
Enable/Disable Side Tones
Your radio sounds confirming tones when you press
the Menu or Selector buttons. Most users find this
audible confirmation helpful in navigating the menus in
the Display Panel.
Turning off your radio
does not affect your Side
Tone setting, which will
be saved for your next
use.
You can disable the side tones, if you wish, by
navigating to the Side Tone menu, and selecting Off.
To re-enable the tones, you’ll need to navigate back to
the same menu (without the benefit of side tones) and
this time select On.
For covert operations, it is important to be able to turn
off the audible side tones that occur when you press a
Menu or Selector button. For safety’s sake, though, you
probably won’t want to shut your radio down for the
time you’re planning to go covert.
To temporarily disable the tones that could expose your
presence and position, use the Menu Selector buttons to
access the Side Tone Menu. There are only two choices
in the Side Tone Menu (On, Off).
If your radio is operating properly but you don’t hear
tones when you press the Menu or Select buttons, your
side tones are probably disabled. Access the Side Tone
menu and reset your Tones to On.
Ø How to Enable or Disable Side Tones
1.) Use the Up and Down buttons to cycle through
the Menu choices until SideMenu appears.
2.) Use the Left or Right button to change the
display from On to Off or vice versa.
3.) Press the Select button to lock in your choice.
