NOTE: If you release the PTT button while the radio is setting
up the call, it exits without any indication and returns to
the previous screen.
Your radio may be programmed to perform a radio
presence check prior to setting up the Private Call. If
the target radio is not available, you hear a short tone
and see negative mini notice on the display.
The radio returns to the menu prior to initiating the
radio presence check.
