Programming Call Channels

The Call channel is simply a channel that
has been selected from the list of channels for
each band (USA/Canadian/International) and
reserved for easy access for use as a calling or
hailing channel. The Call channel has its own
dedicated key.

To program Call channels:

1. The default Call channel in all bands is Ch. 09.

Each band (USA/International/Canadian) can be

programmed with a different Call channel.

(Figure 9)

2. To select a new Call channel use the

UP/DOWN arrow keys to select a channel

from the regular channel list of the channel

band you are using (USA/International/Canadian).

3. Press and hold the CALL key for more than one

second to program the selected channel as the

Call Channel. (Figure 9)

NOTE: Selection of appropriate call
channels is based on a working knowledge
of available channels and their designated
uses.
