2. Press the F3 key whenever it is necessary to toggle between the PVT (Private), DGTL, and CLR
(Clear) modes.
To use the vocoder in the ALE mode:
1. Enable the ALE mode, as described in para. 3-12.1.
2. When using the DGTL mode, the radio scans automatically in the CLR mode (you may see that
the bandwidth returns to the default, 2.7K) and switches to the DGTL mode without your
intervention when a DGTL call is detected.
When using the PVT mode, you must press the F1 key to switch to the CLR (Clear) mode to
enable the radio to scan or to initiate a call to the desired destination. After a link is established,
press CLR (F1) to switch to the PVT mode. Switch back to the CLR mode after the link is
disconnected.
