FEATURES
› New feature "Emergency CALL"
› Midland G8 introduces an innovative and important feature: the channel dedicated to the emergencies.
Radio communications usually happen between two or more users which are tuned on the same channel: it's
not possible to transmit or receive to/from different channels. But thanks to the "Emergency" function, you
can also keep a check on the Emergency channel: all users having a Midland G8 can communicate on the
tuned channel and at the same time can receive/transmit Emergency messages on the dedicated channel.
Simply keep pressed the EMG button for 3 seconds and an emergency CALL will be sent to all the G8 within
the range: they will be automatically tuned on the "EC" channel (Emergency Channel).
› New feature "Manual Out of range":
some radios within the range of your equipment.
› New feature "Vox TalkBack":
stop the transmission after 20" to allow the transmission to the other users as well.
