ˆ If CTCSS or Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) Lockout has been programmed on a
channel, the radio can transmit only when there is no carrier being received or when
the carrier being received includes the correct CTCSS tone or DCS code.
Automatic Time-Out Timer
If the selected channel has been programmed for automatic time-out, you must limit the
length of each transmission. While transmitting, a beep will sound 10 seconds before
time-out. Another beep will sound just before the deadline; the “TX” indicator will
disappear and transmission will cease soon thereafter. To resume transmitting, you
must release the PTT switch and wait for the “penalty timer” to expire (if you press the
PTT switch before this timer expires, the timer restarts, and you will have to wait
another “penalty” period)
Advanced Operation
