Operation Manual

VX-2100 SERIES OPERATING MANUAL 11
TALK AROUND
(
TA
)
Press (or press and hold) the assigned programmable 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 re-
ceive and transmit frequencies are already the same.
Note that your dealer may have mode provision for “Talk Around” channels by pro-
gramming “repeater” and “Talk Around” frequencies on two adjacent channels. If so,
the key may be used for one of the other Pre-Programmed Functions.
TA SCAN
The “TA SCAN” is one of “DW Scan” between Rx and Tx frequency. It works the Rx
channel as priority channel and the radio will always transmit on the Tx Channel if
the PTT is pressed in the TA SCAN mode.
Press (or press and hold) the assigned programmable key to activate/deactivate the
TA SCAN feature.

have someone monitoring on the same frequency as your transceiver’s channel.
