Selective (Call Guard) Code Select
If the Selective Squelch Select option switch is programmed, the
Selective Squelch (Call Guard) code can be temporarily changed. This
switch is used to select a code from a pre-programmed list of up to 16
codes. Proceed as follows to change a code using this switch:
1. Press the Selective Squelch option switch and then rotate the Select
switch to select the desired code. The display indicates “SEL SQ xx”
where, “xx” is the selected code from 1-16.
2. To select the displayed code and return to the normal operation, press
the Selective Squelch switch again.
3. To check which code is selected, press the Selective Squelch switch
once to display the current selection and then again to return to normal
operation.
4. To return to the normal selective squelch codes, select “DEFAULT” in
this mode. The normal codes are also automatically reselected when-
ever transceiver power is cycled or a talk-around channel is selected.
NOTE: Call Guard codes can also be changed using the keypad
programming function described on page 38.
Penalty Timer
A penalty timer may be programmed on conventional channels to
prevent transmissions for a short period of time after the time-out timer
disables the transmitter (see page 19). The penalty timer starts when the
PTT switch is released after the transmitter has been disabled. If the PTT
switch is pressed during the penalty time, the time-out indication occurs
again. When the penalty timer expires, a beep sounds and the transmitter
can then be keyed.
