4EnglishINTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTIONCONVENTIONAL RADIO SYSTEMSConventional radio systems typically refer to unit to unit communications through a single --channel. Conventional systems also allow radio users to extend communication coverage by relaying their messages through a repeater. To ensure coordinated use by multiple users, each radio user must monitor the channel or repeater before transmitting to verify that the system is not currently busy.GM3688 RADIO FEATURESRadio Wide Features• 64 Channels• 8 Character Alphanumeric Display-• 4 Programmable Feature Buttons• 2 Memory Channels• Telephone Interconnect• User programmable Phone, Scan Lists, -TPL/DPL• Option Board Expandability• Busy Channel Lockout• High/Low Power Settings• Local/Distance Mode•TimeOut Timer-• Monitor and Sticky Permanent Monitor• System Scan with 2 Priority Levels and Revert ScanSignaling Features• MDC 1200 Signaling• Quik Call II Signaling-• DTMF Signaling-Emergency Alert-Selective Radio Inhibit-PTT ID Encode/Decode-Radio Check Decode-Call Alert-Selective Call-Radio Call List-Call ToneTagging-DTMF PTT ID Encode-DTMF Call Alert Encode-DTMFSelective Call EncodeEnglish.book  Page 4  Friday, November 7, 2003  12:41 PM
