Talk Direct (Mobile-To-Mobile)
To talk directly to another unit without going through the conventional
repeater system:
1 Press the Dir button momentarily.
The Dir indicator lights, indicating that the radio is now
transmitting directly to another unit.
2 To return to repeater operation, press the Dir button again.
The Dir indicator goes out.
Note: A conventional personality can be configured to always
transmit on the direct mobile-to-mobile frequency. In this
case, the Dir indicator is lit continuously while the mode is
selected.
