RADIO CALLS

REPEATER OR TALKAROUND
MODE
Talkaround Mode enables you to communicate with
another radio when either:
• the repeater is not operating
—or—
• your radio is out of the repeater's range but
within communicating distance of another radio.
Press the preprogrammed Repeater/Talkaround
button to toggle between Repeater mode and
Talkaround Mode.
SETTING TIGHT OR NORMAL
SQUELCH
Use this feature to filter out nuisance (unwanted)
calls and/or background noise. However, tightening
squelch could cause calls from remote locations to
be filtered out as well. In this case, normal squelch
may be more desirable.
Press the preprogrammed Squelch button to toggle
between tight and normal squelch.
