The timer is defaulted at 60 seconds, but it can be
preprogrammed from 3 to 120 seconds, in 15-second intervals,
or it can be disabled entirely for each radio mode, by a qualified
radio technician.

seconds before the transmission times out.

time. You hear a short, low-pitched warning tone, the
transmission is cut-off, and the LED goes out until you
