If you press your

page, the transceiver sends the other station's ID
code, a DTMF "star" (*) followed by your own
3-digit personal ID code (Code Memory f J ) all
automatically, and then resets the radio to re-
ceive another call.
Unless you are using the Trigger Paging func-
tion (covered next), you may want to switch

Paging Tx Delay
When calling other stations using DTMF
Paging or Code Squelch, particularly
through repeaters, you may find that some
stations are unable to receive your calls. This
can be caused by their receiver squelch not
opening fast enough (after receiving your
transmitted carrier) to allow all of the DTMF
digits to be received and decoded.
To correct this problem, you can set a longer
delay (750 ms) between the time your trans-
mitter is keyed and the time the first DTMF
digit is sent.
