ALE Hangup Voice Call
The ALE Hangup Voice Call entry sets whether or not a member of an ALE link
sends a link termination sequence when SCAN is pressed.
During any ALE call, a link is established between the calling and called stations.
When the ALE Hangup Voice Call entry is set to Enabled, all stations receive a
link termination sequence when SCAN is pressed at one of the stations. All stations
that entered the link hang up the link and return to scanning when they receive this
sequence.
If the ALE Hangup Voice Call entry is set to Disabled, a link termination
sequence is not sent when SCAN is pressed at any of the stations in the link. In this
case, only this station ends its link.
Default value: Enabled
ALE LQA Exchange
The ALE LQA Exchange entry sets whether or not LQA information is exchanged
between stations during each call so that the link quality can be assessed in both
directions.
If you want the transceiver to:
• receive any LQA information sent from the other station, but not request this
information, select Disabled
• send and receive LQA information to and from other stations during calls, select
Enabled
Default value: Enabled
NOTE: When the ALE LQA Exchange entry is set to Enabled, it increases
the length of time it takes to establish a call by approximately
4 seconds for every 10 channels on which the call is tried.
NOTE: LQA information is always exchanged during a Channel Test call in an
ALE/CALM HF network (MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option),
regardless of the setting in the ALE LQA Exchange entry.
NOTE: Exchange of LQA information may affect interoperability with
non-Codan HF transceivers. If interoperability is affected, set the ALE
LQA Exchange entry to Disabled.
ALE LQA Mapping
The ALE LQA Mapping entry determines the method by which the LQA
information is stored within the transceiver, that is, according to frequency or channel
number.
Available values: Frequency, Number
Default value: Frequency
