Stopping a Radio Call
This feature allows you to stop an ongoing Group or Private Call
to free the channel for transmission. For example, when a radio
experiences a “stuck microphone” condition where the PTT
button is inadvertently pressed by the user.
Your radio must be programmed to allow you to use this feature.
Procedure:
While on the required channel:
1
Press the programmed Transmit Interrupt Remote Dekey
button.
2
Wait for acknowledgment.
3
The radio sounds a positive indicator tone, indicating that
the channel is now free.
OR
The radio sounds a negative indicator tone, indicating that
the radio is unable to free the channel.
Your radio sounds a negative indicator tone until you release
the PTT button, if it is transmitting an interruptible call that is
stopped via this feature. On an interrupted radio with a display,
the display shows Call Interrupted.
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”.
NOTE: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus and
Linked Capacity Plus.
Procedure:
1
Press the programmed Repeater/Talkaround button.
2
You hear a positive indicator tone, indicating the radio is in
Talkaround mode.
OR
You hear a negative indicator tone, indicating the radio is in
Repeater mode.
The Talkaround setting is retained even after powering down.
