You can send and receive 2-digit Status messages which may be decided in your
talk group. Messages can contain up to 6 alphanumeric characters. Status
messages range from 0 to 99 (80 ~ 99 are reserved for special messages).
A maximum of 5 received messages can be stored in the Stack memory of your
transceiver. These saved messages can be reviewed after reception. Depending
on your dealer settings, when the Stack memory is full, either the oldest message
will be erased when a new message is received or the new message will not be
stored in the Stack memory.
• The

(KCH-5) icon appears when a message is
stored in the Stack memory.
