Aurora User’s Manual
RADIO PAGING
Channels with radio paging code signals are
indicated in the display with the radio page
icon [ ] regardless of whether channels,
frequencies, or alphas are being displayed.
When the radio is receiving signals and the
radio page icon is illuminated, the receive
frequency has a paging code assigned. If the
radio is in monitor mode, the radio page icon
will not be illuminated while receiving.
When your radio is transmitting and the radio
page icon is illuminated, the transmit
frequency has a paging code assigned. This
code will go out on the leading edge, trailing
edge, or both edges of the PTT press.
FLEX MODE
The Aurora radio has two IF sections and
operates on either 12.5 kHz (narrow
bandwidth) or 30 kHz (wide bandwidth) for
the VHF model radio. The operating
bandwidth of the channel is a dealer-
programmable option that you can select on a
per-channel basis.
KEYPAD AND CHANNEL SELECTOR LOCK
You can lock the keypad on your radio so
any presses on the keypad are ignored by the
radio. While the keypad is locked, you can
see the lock icon [ ] in the display.
To lock or unlock the keypad, press and hold
[#] for 2 seconds.
