ASTRO XTL 5000 Digital Mobile Radio with W4, W5, W7, and W9 43
General Radio Features
Note: If the number contains a programmed pause, the dialing 
pauses briefly when the display shows P. After the brief 
pause, the rest of the numbers are dialed.
If you are out of range of the trunked system, the display 
shows NO PHONE, and a continuous low-pitched tone 
sounds. Press   or   to resume normal 
operation.
If the trunked phone interconnect is in use or the phone 
interconnect is out of service, a telephone-type busy tone 
sounds, and the display shows PHON BSY (W4, W5, W7) or 
PHONE BUSY (W9). Your number is automatically dialed 
when the phone interconnect becomes available. If you 
hang up, you lose your place in the queue.
If the display shows PHON BSY (W4, W5, W7) or PHONE 
BUSY (W9) with a low-pitched tone rather than a telephone-
type busy tone, the call is not queued. You must hang up 
and try again.
4 When your party answers, press the PTT button to talk, and 
release it to listen.
5 When the call is completed, press   or   to 
hang up and return to normal operation.
