  • Page 13: Selecting A Channel By Alphanumeric Identifier

    Using the Direct/Repeat Feature The P-2000 supports both direct and repeat modes of operation. Any preset channel that has identical transmit and receive frequencies is considered a direct channel. If the transmit and receive frequencies are different, the P-2000 considers the channel a repeater channel.
  • Page 14: Receiving/Transmitting

    FM #1 transmitting. Receiving The P-2000 is constantly monitoring its radios for reception. When a signal is received, the P-2000 will light the receive indicator for the receiving radio, and route the audio to the operator’s headset (assuming the associated intercom switch is selected).
