TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)
It is sometimes necessary or desirable to restrict a
single transmission to a specific maximum time. This
feature can be useful when accessing repeaters to
prevent repeater time-outs as a result of a single
transmission that is longer than the maximum
permitted time. The Time-out Timer also prevents
your transceiver from damage due to excessive
uninterrupted transmissions. If you are trying to
conserve battery power, TOT helps with that task too.
Activate TOT via Menu B, No. 59 {page 14} anytime
you wish to limit your transmit time. There are 5
different timer values available. The default for the
function is OFF. When TOT times out, the transceiver
beeps and automatically returns to Receive. To
resume transmitting, release and then press [PTT]
again.
