BASIC OPERATION

I Call procedure

When your system employs tone signalling (excluding
CTCSS and DTCS), the call procedure may be necessary
prior to voice transmission. The tone signalling employed may
be a selective calling system which allows you to call specific
station(s) only and prevent unwanted stations from contact-
ing you.
q Select the desired DTMF encode channel according to
your System Operator's instructions.
• This may not be necessary depending on programming.
• Refer to pgs. 11, 14, 16 for selection.
w Push the [PTT].
e After transmitting a DTMF code, the remainder of your
communication can be carried out in the normal fashion.
