Making a Call

The radio is capable of making a variety of calls,

including calls to individual radios, groups of radios

and calls to private and public telephone systems.

Before you can make a call the radio must be in the

IDLE STATE, i.e. a personality has been selected

and no call is in progress (see "Personality

Selection"). In the IDLE STATE the radio displays:

TEXT

213

The 1200 series radios can make calls by using

Shortform Dialling, or Dedicated Calls. K8 radios

can also make calls using Manual Dialling.

Shortform Dialling

When the radio is in the IDLE STATE shortform

dialling may be used. This allows quick access to up

to 40 preprogrammed numbers of up to 14 digits (on

K4 radios, only the last 8 digits are displayed) using

the shortform dial position selector (16 & 17).

Depending on the way your radio is programmed,

the radio will display the alphanumeric alias, the

number to be dialled or the position in the list.

For example:

213

where 01 indicates position in Fixed Group list.

where BA 123 SERVICE is an Dynamic Group alpha alias.

where 01 indicates position in Dynamic Group list.

The call request is sent either by pressing the PTT

key (19) or
