Press, (or press and hold), the assigned PF key to toggle
the TA Scan feature “On” and “Off”.
When operating on a duplex channel system (for example,
a repeater station), TA Scan allows the transceiver to
search both transmit and receive frequencies on your du-
plex system.
When a signal is encountered on the receive frequency,
the transceiver will pause until the signal disappears.
When a signal is encountered on the transmit frequency,
the transceiver will check for activity on the receive fre-
quency every few seconds (interval programmed by your
Vertex Standard dealer).
Note: The TA Scan feature does not activate on a Simplex
Channel.

Press, (or press and hold), the assigned PF key to activate
the Talk Around feature when you are operating on duplex
channel systems (separate receive and transmit frequen-
cies, utilizing a “repeater” station). The Talk Around
feature allows you to bypass the repeater station and talk
directly to a station that is nearby. This feature has no ef-
fect when you are operating on “simplex” channels, where
the receive and transmit frequencies are already the same.
Note that your dealer may have mode provision for “Talk
Around” channels by programming “repeater” and “Talk
Around” frequencies on two adjacent channels. If so, the
key may be used for one of the other Pre-Programmed
Functions.
Note: The Talk Around feature does not activate on a Sim-
plex Channel.
