 key.

Note:

A scan group must contain 2 to 16 channels.

The home channel is defined by selecting a channel and then holding the  

 key

for longer than 1 second. The "SCAN" indicator will now be flashing.

Note:

You can only delete a normal channel from the scan group. If the home
channel is to be deleted from the scan group, you first have to define another
channel as home channel and then delete the original home channel.

Selcall is enabled on a per channel basis. Hence if you try to make a call on a channel that

of the channels which have Selcall enabled.

If the radio is scanning, you may have to lift the microphone off its hook or select
a single channel in place of the scan group.  Check that the radio is on the correct
channel and that the channel is clear before attempting to make the call.

to one other user; usually your base or despatcher - check with your Tait dealer.  To
call this user, press the 

 key for about one second.  You will notice that the

"TX" indicator appears in the display briefly and your radio will sound a short 

beep

as the call is transmitted.

Your radio may be programmed with the ability to call other users with Selcall on
your channel.  Press the 

 key briefly to activate the Selcall mode.  Enter the call

code for the other user on your keypad.  Each digit will appear in the display as you
