4.3 Hailer/Fog Horn/Intercom
Hailer and Fog operations are available on the Ray218E, but not on the Ray55E.
You must purchase and install an optional hailer horn for these features to
operate. Intercom operations are available on both the Ray218E and Ray55E.
Note: This menu item provides access to auxiliary functions. While these operations are
active, you cannot send or receive radio calls. The exception is in AUTO FOG mode, be-
tween soundings.
Hailer (Ray218E only)
The Hailer operation enables the unit to use a Hailer Horn as a loudspeaker. Press
and hold
PTT to place the unit in Hailer mode. Anything spoken into the handset
is amplified and broadcast from the Hailer Horn (but not transmitted over the
radio). To adjust the Hailer Horn broadcast volume, use the up/down arrow soft
keys while pressing and holding
PTT.
