be programmed for keys 1-7. Up to 8 banks of 7 keys can be stored for Aegis
(DES and VGE) systems.
DES radios require a DES Keyloader (Option V4025 with software version
3.n or later). VGE radios require a VGE Keyloader (Option V4028 with soft-
ware version 2.n or later).
When operating on a group or channel programmed for private mode, all
transmissions will be private transmissions and the radio will receive clear
and private signals. The PVT keylight (System Model) or OPTION keylight
(Scan Model) turns on when the private mode is enabled. If the selected
group or channel is programmed for autoselect capability, the mode may be
toggled between private and clear with the PVT button (System Model) or
button (Scan Model). Radios programmed for forced private operation
