peer-to-peer and Send Location features to work, the
receiving radio must have Scramble enabled also.

to look for weather alert tones either only on the
current channel or on all channels.

or microphone you are using with the unit, or

If you use more than one type of headset or
microphone, set the unit to “Ask When Detected”
