What is my Radio System Frequency? Ritron pioneered
the Color Dot system to simplify the identification of radio
system frequencies for Ritron Jobcom radios. Color Dots
are placed on the bottoms of and inside the enclosures of
all Jobcom radios. Other manufacturers have also
adopted this idea.
To identify your assigned frequency if your radios do not
have a color dot, locate a label identifying the receiver
frequency in megahertz (MHz). Your assigned frequency is
also shown on your F.C.C. Station License. Call your radio
dealer or Ritron for help if you cannot determine your
radio's receiver frequency.
Do I need to program my Quick Talk's transmitter
frequency? The original factory-programmed transmitter
frequency of your Quick Talk is marked on the outside of
the shipping box, and is also indicated by a color dot on
the inside the unit case. If the Quick Talk frequency
matches your radio system frequency, and if the Quick
Talk has not been reprogrammed since it left the factory,
you may skip this section and proceed to the next.
Note: To program a non-table frequency refer to page 14.
TO PROGRAM THE QUICK TALK TRANSMITTER
FREQUENCY:
a. Determine the frequency of your radio system.
b. Find your frequency in the appropriate table at right,
and determine its corresponding two digit code. If
your radio system frequency is not in the chart, your
Quick Talk must be programmed by a radio dealer
or by Ritron.
c. Pick up the telephone receiver, and listen for the
acknowledge tone. Dial "11", then the digits of the
selected frequency code from the table.
Examples: If the Quick Talk is a VHF RQT-150
model, and the radios operate on
154.570 MHz (Blue Dot frequency),
dial "11-02".
If the Quick Talk is a UHF RQT-450
model, and the radios operate on
467.925 MHz (Blue Star frequency),
dial "11-08".
d. Quick Talk responds with a single beep to indicate
it has programmed the transmitter frequency.
e. You may either hang up or continue programming.
NOTES: If you make a dialing mistake while program-
ming, hang up the telephone handset, then
pick it up and dial again.
If you reprogrammed the Quick Talk frequency,
you may wish to remove the Color Dot from
inside the case, to avoid later confusion.
What the Tones (Beeps) in Your Earpiece Mean:
A series of three short tones cues you to begin
recording a message.
A single brief tone means your command is
accepted and stored.
A series of long repeating tones means your
command was not understood; hang up and dial
again.
