    How to Receive Confirm that the power source, antenna, and microphone are connected properly before proceeding to the following steps. Turn the unit ON by rotating the VOLUME control clockwise. Set the CHANNEL CONTROL knob to the desired channel. Set the VOLUME control to a comfortable Listen to the background noise from the speaker.

    Pressing the SCAN button one time will initiate scanning, and scanning is stopped either by pressing the button a second time or pressing the Press-to- Talk button. Programming Scan Channels When the radio is initially turned on, there will not be any channels programmed in the Group Scan Memory.

The SUNDOWNER UH-O99 will now scan the programmed channels, displaying each channel number and the PRIORITY channel number.
  • Page 12: Removing Open Scan Channels

    Removing Open Scan Channels When the radio is initially turned on, all 40 channels are programmed in the OPEN SCAN MEMORY. If you do not wish to scan some particular channels (e.g. if one or more channels are continually busy and always causing the scanning function to pause), you can remove these channels from the scan group by using the following procedure: Cancel scal)ning (if active).
  • Page 13: Reinstalling Channels Into The Scan Group

    Reinstalling Channels into the Scan Group To reinstall previously deleted channels into the scan group, simply repeat steps 3 and 4. However, this time note that a beep will be heard when the MEM button is pressed, and the MEM indicator will light, indicating that the selected channel is now included in the scan group.
  • Page 14: Selective Calling

    Selective Calling Outline Selective Calling (SELCALL) allows the user to receive/transmit on a shared busy channel. The SUNDOWNER UH-O99 has a specially built-in Selective Calling (SELCALL) system. Exceptional features like Receiver Quieting, Tone Squelch Scanning, Tone and Group Calling make the SUNDOWNER UH-O99superior to any transceivers in its class.

    Press the T.Sa button for about 1.5 seconds. Two beeps are heard and the T.SO indicator disappears from the LCD display. Call Receiving While in the T.SO condition, when UH-099 receives a code matching your SELCALL ID, it will perform the following operations: Automatically...
  • Page 16: Tone Calling

    Unlike Normal Scanning, T.Sa Scanning checks the detected carrier for SELCALL information. If this information is not found, T.Sa scanning resumes. When a call is received during T.Sa Scanning, UH-099 follows the same response as when receiving a call on a Tone Squelch Channel. It differs only in the following ways.
