Using the Time-Out Timer

If you attempt to do so, the radio automatically stops
your transmission, and you hear a talk-prohibit tone.
The timer is defaulted at 60 seconds, but it can be
preprogrammed from 3 to 120 seconds, in 15-second
intervals, or it can be disabled entirely for each radio
mode, by a qualified radio technician.
Note: You hear a brief, low-pitched, warning tone four
seconds before the transmission times out.

preprogrammed time.
You hear a short, low-pitched warning tone, the
transmission is cut-off, and the LED goes out until
you release the PTT button.
2 Release the PTT button.
The timer resets.
3 To re-transmit, press the PTT button.
