RADIO CALL INFORMATION

REPEATER OR TALKAROUND MODE

Talkaround Mode enables you to communicate with
another radio when either:
• the repeater is not operating
—or—
• your radio is out of the repeater's range but
within communicating distance of another
radio.
Press the Repeater/Talkaround button (only
available if programmed by your dealer) to toggle
between the two modes. A positive indicator tone
indicates that the radio is in talkaround mode, while
a negative indicator tone indicates that the radio is
in repeater mode.

SETTING TIGHT OR NORMAL SQUELCH

Use this feature to filter out nuisance (unwanted)
calls and/or background noise. However, tightening
squelch could cause calls from remote locations to
be filtered out as well. In this case, normal squelch
may be more desirable.

Press the Squelch button (only available if
programmed by your dealer) to toggle between tight
and normal squelch. A positive indicator tone
indicates that the radio is operating in tight squelch,
while a negative indicator tone indicates that the
radio is operating in normal squelch.

SETTING THE POWER LEVEL

Your radio has a predefined transmit power level
that can be changed.
• High power allows the radio to transmit over
greater distances.
• Low power conserves the battery's charge.
Press the Power Level button (only available if
programmed by your dealer) to toggle between low
and high transmit power level. A positive indicator
tone indicates that the radio is in high power mode,
while a negative indicator tone indicates that the
radio is in low power mode.
