Out-of-Range Radio

When your radio goes out of the range of the system,
it can no longer lock onto a control channel.
You hear a low-pitched tone and/or the display shows
the currently selected zone/channel combination and
OUT RNG. Your radio remains in this out-of-range
condition until it locks onto a control channel, it locks
onto a failsoft channel, or it is turned off.

Site Trunking Feature

If the zone controller loses communication with any
site, that site reverts to site trunking.
The display shows the currently selected zone/
channel combination and STE TRNK.
Note
When this occurs, you can communicate only
with other radios within your trunking site.

Locking and Unlocking a Site

This feature allows your radio to lock onto a specific
site and not roam among wide-area talkgroup sites.
This feature should be used with caution, since it
inhibits roaming to another site in a wide-area
system.
Use the preprogrammed Site Lock/Unlock button
to toggle the lock state between locked and
unlocked.
The radio saves the new site lock state and returns to
the Home screen.

Site Display and Search Button

The Site Display and Site Search button allows you
to view the name of the current site or force your
radio to change to a new one.
Viewing the Current Site
Press the preprogrammed Site Displ/Srch button.
The display shows momentary the name of the
current site and its corresponding received signal
strength indicator (RSSI).
