Call procedure
When your system employs tone signaling (excluding CTCSS
and DTCS), the call procedure may be necessary prior to voice
transmission. The tone signalling employed may be a selec-
tive calling system which allows you to call specific station(s)
only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting you.

Select the desired TX code channel or 5-tone code
according to your System Operator’s instructions.

mable keys: [Up], [Down], [P0], [P1], [P2], [P3], [Red] and

After transmitting a 5-tone code, the remainder of your
communication can be carried out in the normal fashion.
