POWER SAVE CIRCUIT

This part of the operation of the radio is completely automatic and not adjustable.
When the radio has not transmitted or received a signal for about 8 seconds it will
begin to cycle from a sleep mode to fully on. This occurs several times a minute. If a
signal is received or you cause the unit to transmit the radio will become fully awake.
This cycling from sleep to fully on increases the standby battery life more than 50%.

USING THE MONITOR FUNCTION

1. Press and hold the "MON" button on the side of the radio to open the squelch.
!
This allows you to override the squelch and the "CTCSS" tones. This is useful
to monitor the channel before you transmit to ensure there is not someone using
the channel when you have "CTCSS" tones programmed. This is also useful if
you suspect someone in your group does not have the proper "CTCSS" tones
programmed.
2. Release the "MON" button to restore the squelch to normal.
