SELECTING THE RECORDING MODE
Sometimes you may want to continuously record the last
audio that opened your transceiver squelch. This mode
is similar to a tape that records continuously and
automatically in an endless loop over previous
messages, saving only the latest message. This method
is useful while generally monitoring a frequency so you
can hear a repeat of a call sign you may miss the first
time.
At other times, you may want to record the first audio
that opens your transceiver squelch, then save that
message until you decide to play it back. After playback,
the transceiver returns to standby and is then ready to
record again. You may use this method while waiting for
a specific call that you don’t want to miss. The following
procedure allows you to select either of the above
methods.
