Note: 42 different tones are available for the transceiver. These
42 tones includes 37 EIA standard tones and 5 non-standard tones.
E market version only:
◆ To transmit a 1750 Hz tone, simply press [CALL] without pressing
Mic [PTT] (default setting). Release [CALL] to quit transmitting.
You can also make the transceiver remain in the transmit mode for
2 seconds after releasing [CALL]; a 1750 Hz tone is not
continuously transmitted. Access Menu No. 20 (HLD) and select
“ON”.
◆ To use [CALL] for recalling the Call Channel in place of
transmitting a 1750 Hz tone, access Menu No. 19 (CK) and select
“CALL”.
