Conversation Time-Out Tone -
Calls are limited to a certain length by
the system. Thirty seconds before this time is reached, a “tick” begins
sounding each second. When the 30-second time expires, the call is auto-
matically terminated by the system.
Turn-Around Tone -
This is a single beep which may be used to indicate
to the landside party when to respond to your transmission. It sounds
when you release the PTT switch, and you may partially hear this tone.
Proceed Tone -
This tone consists of two beeps and it tells the landside
caller when to enter the five-digit number specifying the mobile being
called. Dialing of this number must be started within 5 seconds of hearing
this tone, and a tone-type telephone must be used.
