a Selective Call initiated by an authorized individual radio, your
radio must be programmed for you to initiate a Selective Call.

Selecting a Channel on page 12.

your mouth.

solid green.
4 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak
clearly into the microphone.
5 Release the PTT button to listen. When the target radio
responds, the LED blinks green.
6 If there is no voice activity for a predetermined period of
time, the call ends.
Talkaround
You can continue to communicate when your repeater is not
operating, or when your radio is out of the repeater’s range but
within talking range of other radios. This is called “talkaround”.
