BUSY LOCKOUT
When enabled, the Busy Lockout function detects when someone is transmitting
on the channel and prevents your radio from transmitting over them. If you press
the PTT when the channel is busy the radio will emit a warning beep and the
icon won’t be displayed. If this happens, look for the icon on the display
as an indicator that the channel is already in use. If the channel is busy, simply
wait until the channel is clear and press the PTT again.
When Busy Lockout is disabled, you should check that the channel is clear
before pressing the PTT to avoid transmitting over others who may be already
transmitting on the channel.
To enable/disable busy lockout:
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Navigate through the menu to select
RADIO SETTINGS > BUSY LOCK.
You can use the
or
key to turn this function on or o.
VOICE SCRAMBLER
Your radio incorporates a simple voice scrambler using band inversion.
The scrambler is compatible with the majority of scramblers used by other
manufacturers, allowing you to enjoy scrambled communications with owners of
non-GME radios. Once the scrambler has been activated your transmission and
reception will only be intelligible to others using the same scrambler technology.
To enable/disable voice scrambler:
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Navigate through the menu to select
RADIO SETTINGS > SCRAMBLER.
You can use the MENU key to turn this function on or o.
To avoid interference with other services or users, the scrambler cannot be
enabled on channels 5, 11, 22, 23, 31-38, 61, 62, 63, 71-78 or on any channel that
has been set to Duplex mode (1-8).
