15Radio Call Information EnglishRADIO CALL INFORMATION RADIO CALL INFORMATION TALKAROUND In your communications network, you may be using a repeater to cover a larger area than what is possible with your radio. However, you can communicate with another radio within your radio’s range without going through the repeater by using the Talkaround feature. This is especially useful when the repeater is down. Press the programmed Repeater/Talkaround button to toggle between the options of making or not making a call through the repeater. A positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is in repeater mode, while a negative indicator tone indicates that the radio is in talkaround mode. SQUELCH If a particular channel receives many unwanted calls coming from radios that do not belong to your communications group and some distance away, or the “background noise” is excessive, you can try to filter these transmissions out by tightening the channel’s squelch. However, tightening squelch could cause calls from members of your communications group that are farther away to be filtered out as well.Press the programmed Squelch button to toggle between the options of having normal squelch or tightening the squelch of your radio. A positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is operating in tight squelch, while a negative indicator tone indicates that the radio is operating in normal squelch. POWER LEVEL You can transmit your calls at different transmit power levels. A higher level means you can reach a radio that is farther away. Lower power level conserves battery power. You are advised to transmit as frequently as possible on low power, and use high power only when needed. Press the programmed Tx Power button to toggle between the options for High or Low power transmit level. A positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is operating in high power mode, while a negative indicator tone #WarisPopUser.book Page 15 27, May 1998, 2:06 PM
