ERASING
ANNOUNCEMENTS AND
REALLOCATING
ANNOUNCEMENT TIMES
You can decrease the time allocated for one announcement to lengthen the
time for another provided the total time for all announcements equals 64 seconds.
For example, you can add 25 seconds to the day announcement if you are not
using the night announcement. To do this, you would use the procedure
below to allocate 50 seconds to the day announcement and 00 seconds to the
night announcement.
Whenever you reallocate time to any announcement, you erase

all announcements that are already recorded.

command.
