Replacing LQA information for all channels
in an ALE/CALM network
If your station operates in a rapidly changing environment,
e.g. interactions with mobile stations, you may want to replace
the LQA information in the relevant part of the database for
the channels in an ALE/CALM network just prior to making a
call in the network. You can do this by making a Channel Test
call in the network using the Group Selective or NET address
syntaxes.
During a Channel Test call in an ALE/CALM network the
LQA screen will be visible, indicating the most recent
response from a station, and a progress report on the highest
number of responses received on any channel and the number
of channels tried.
For more information on the LQA screen see the reference
material on the enclosed CD.
CAUTION
You cannot make a Channel Test call using the
ALL, ANY or Wildcard address syntaxes, or to
a NET that is set up to link immediately.
