Responding to a Transmission During
a Scan
During scanning, your radio stops on a group where activity
is detected. The radio continuously listens for any member
in the scan list when idle on the control channel.

The LED lights up solid green.
3 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled),

4 Release the PTT button to listen.
If you do not respond within the hang time, the radio
returns to scanning other groups.
