Advanced Call Features
Receiving and Making a Selective Call (ASTRO
Conventional Only)
This feature allows you to receive a call from or to call a specific
individual. It is intended to provide privacy and to eliminate the
annoyance of having to listen to conversations that are of no
interest to you.
Receiving a Selective Call
Procedure:
1 When you receive a Selective Call, you hear two alert tones
and the LED lights up solid yellow. The display shows Call
received.
You hear two alert tones, the LED lights up solid yellow to
indicate the transmitting radio is still sending signal.
OR
the LED blinks solid green once to indicate the transmitting
radio is pending to receive signal.
2 The speaker unmutes.
3 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) from
your mouth.
4 Press and hold the PTT button to talk. Release the PTT
button to listen.
