NAMING YOUR SElCAll IDENTS

5 character ALPhA name. The name is stored in memory

Ident you are recalling from the memory. If an incoming
Selcall matches one of those in your radio's memory, the
name can be displayed instead of the Selcall Ident.
DISPlAYING AlPHA NAMES
To display the Selcall's ALPhA Name, you must have the
radio's ALPhA display mode selected. To toggle the ALPhA
display mode, briefly press the F (function) key followed
by the ALPHA key. 'ALPhA' or 'NUMER' will be displayed
for 2 seconds below the channel display to indicate the
selected mode.

which display mode is selected. The selected mode will only
become obvious when displaying idents.
