Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button
The PTT button on the side of the
microphone serves two basic
purposes:
• While a call is in progress, the
PTT button allows the radio to
transmit to other radios in the
call.
Press and hold down PTT
button to talk. Release the PTT
button to listen.
The microphone is activated
when the PTT button is pressed.
• While a call is not in progress, the PTT button is used to make
a new call. See Making a Radio Call on page 32 for more
information.
