Operation Manual

Call procedure ■
When your system employs tone signaling, excluding CTCSS
and DTCS, this call procedure may be necessary prior to
voice transmission. The tone signaling employed may be a
selective calling system which allows you to call only specific
station(s) and prevents unwanted stations from contacting
you.
q Select the desired TX code channel or 2/5-tone code ac-
cording to your System operator’s instructions.
• This may not be necessary, depending on the presetting.
• Refer to pages 14 or 15 for selection.
w Push [Call], assigned to one of the dealer programmable
keys.
e After transmitting, the remainder of your communication
can be carried out in the normal way.
