During a call, if the Channel Free Indication feature is
enabled on your radio (programmed by your dealer), you
will hear a short alert tone the moment the target radio (the
radio that is receiving your call) releases the PTT button,
indicating the channel is free for you to respond.
You will also hear a continuous talk prohibit tone, if your
call is interrupted, indicating that you should release the
PTT button, for example when the radio receives an
Emergency Call.
Switching Between Conventional Analog and
Digital Mode
Each channel in your radio
can be configured as a
conventional analog or
conventional digital channel.
NOTE: For Analog-only
radios, each channel
can only be
configured as a
conventional analog
channel.
Use the Channel Selector
Knob to switch between an analog or a digital channel.
When switching from digital to analog mode, certain features
are unavailable.
Your radio also has features available in both analog and digital
mode. However, the minor differences in the way each feature
works does NOT affect the performance of your radio. A
Software License Key sold separately is required to upgrade
analog-only radios to digital radios.
NOTE: Your radio also switches between digital and analog
modes during a dual mode scan (see Scan on
page 21).
