Page 19: Priorityscan
Priority Scan When a priority channel is selected and scan is activated, the radio will monitor the prioritised channel regularly for activity while scanning. While scanning, if a signal is received on the priority channel the radio will stay on that channel as long as the signal is present. -
Page 20: Create A Channelscan Listwith Channellock-Outfeature
Create a Channel Scan List with Channel Lock-Out Feature You may have certain channels that you do not want to hear every time you scan. These are channels that are busy in a major portion of time, and the scanning stops at that channel(s) often enough to interrupt the scan cycle. -
Page 21: Transmit
TRANSMIT 1. The maximum transmit power output level of UH-O57is 5 watts. To switch to Iow power, press the HI/LO switch. LO appears on the LCD and the transmit power output level is changed to 1 watt. To switch back to High power, press the HI/LO switch again. -
Page 22: Simplexi Duplexcommunication
Simplex I Duplex Communication Duplex Operation allows the Uniden Sundowner UH-O57 to operate via a repeater station on Channels 1 through 8. The set receives on these channels but transmits on Channels 31 through 38 respectively. When Duplex operation is disabled, the set receives and transmits on the same channel. -
Page 23: Special Feature
Special Feature SELECTIVE CALLING Selective Calling (SELCALL) is a special Sequential Tone Squelch System that allows the user to receive/transmit calls selectively fromlto an individual or a group, on a shared busy channel. The Sundowner UH-O57 has Selective Calling (SELCALL) system specially built-in. -
Page 24: Selcalloperation
SELCALL OPERATION Receiver Quieting Puts the receiver on "Quiet" Mode (also known as "Tone Squelch" Mode). When enabled, the radio prevents any unwanted conversations in the channel from being heard unless the call is specifically directed to you and the required SELCALLID to open the "Quiet"... -
Page 25: When A Call Is Received
When a call is received... While on TSO Condition, when UH-057 receives a code matching your SELCALL ID, it will do the following opera- tion. 1. Automatically responds to the caller by transmitting Acknowledge tones. 2. Informs you that a caller is on the channel by emitting a CALL ALARM (three successive tones in a regular interval for 10 seconds.) and displays the CAL indicator. - Page 26 When a call is received while TSQ Scanning, UH-057 follows the same response as receiving a call on a Tone Squelch Channel. It differs only on the following. 1. If the call is not answered within the 20 second period, TSQ Scanning resumes.
