COMPANDER

If programmed by your dealer for a channel, the compander
will remove excessive noise from transmitted signals, to
provide higher clarity of signals.

Note: The compander is used only in analog operation.

BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)

On Conventional channels, if BCL is set up by your dealer, you
will be unable to transmit if the channel is already in use. Use
a different channel or wait until the channel becomes free.
If BCL Override has been programmed, you can transmit over
the current signal:
1 Press and hold the PTT switch.

If the channel is already in use, a warning tone will sound.

2 Quickly release and then press the PTT switch again.
3 Speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal

call.
