plastic cap and its two mounting screws from the
right side of the transceiver, then align the con-
nector of the Speaker/Microphone on the trans-
ceiver body; secure the connector pin using the
screws supplied with the
Speaker/Microphone. Hold
the speaker grille up next to
your ear while receiving. To
transmit, press the PTT switch
on the Speaker/Microphone,
just as you would on the main
transceiver's body, and speak
into the microphone on a nor-
mal voice level.

crophone, and vice versa.

will generate short beep three times and indicate

key versions). Release the PTT switch and wait
for the channel to be clear of activity.
If CTCSS or Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) Lock-
out has been programmed on a channel, the radio
can transmit only when there is no carrier being
received or when the carrier being received in-
cludes the correct CTCSS tone or DCS code.
Automatic Time-Out Timer
If the selected channel has been programmed for au-
tomatic time-out, you must limit the length of each
transmission. While transmitting, a beep will sound
10 seconds before time-out. Another beep will sound
just before the deadline; the "TX" indicator will dis-
appear and transmission will cease soon thereafter.
To resume transmitting, you must release the
switch and wait for the "penalty timer" to expire.
