10 ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM
10.1 Initiating Voice Communications (Basic Transmission and Reception)
Communicating Without Using a Repeater (Talk Around)
Talk Around is the function that allows transceivers to communicate directly without using a repeater.
If the transceiver cannot link to a repeater due to too great distance between the transceiver and the repeater, the
transceiver can directly communicate with the target transceiver using Talk Around.
The transceiver, with Talk Around enabled, transmits on the receive frequency and uses the Decode Signaling (QT tone or
DQT code) configured for the selected channel.
Pressing the Talk Around key toggles Talk Around between enabled and disabled.
Or, pressing the Menu key causes the transceiver to enter Menu Mode, and then Talk Around can be toggled between
enabled and disabled by selecting "Talk Around". (Refer to
For NX-410/ NX-411/ NX-900/ NX-901, by using KPG-111D/ DN, Talk Around can be configured for each channel to be
enabled or disabled.
The " " icon appears if a channel with Talk Around enabled is selected. Talk Around cannot be disabled by pressing a
key of the transceiver such as the Talk Around key.
On a channel where Talk Around is configured to be disabled, Talk Around can be toggled between enabled and disabled
by pressing a key of the transceiver such as the Talk Around key.
