ta scan

Press (or press and hold) the assigned

key to toggle the TA (Talk Around) scan

feature “On” and “Off.”

While TA scan is enabled, the transceiver will search both the transmit and receive

frequencies. When a signal is encountered on the receive frequency, the trans-

ceiver will pause until the signal disappears. When a signal is encountered on the

transmit frequency, the transceiver will check for activity on the receive frequency

every few seconds (interval programmed by your Vertex Standard dealer).

Note: The TA Scan feature does not activate on the Simplex Channel.

talK around

Press (or press and hold) the assigned

key to activate the Talk Around feature

when you are operating on duplex channel systems (separate receive and transmit

frequencies, utilizing a “repeater” station). The Talk Around feature allows you to

bypass the repeater station and talk directly to a station that is nearby. This feature

has no effect when you are operating on “simplex” channels, where the receive

and transmit frequencies are already the same.

When the Talk Around feature is activated, the Transceiver Status Indicator (“

”,

“

” or “

”) will illuminate, if the “Talk Around” status is assigned to one of the

Transceiver Status Indicator.

Note that your Vertex Standard may have made provision for “Talk Around” chan-

nels by programming “repeater” and “Talk Around” frequencies on two adjacent

channels. If so, the key may be used for one of the other Pre-Programmed Func-

tions.

Note: The Talk Around feature does not activate on the Simplex Channel.
