Dual Watch

If you need to operate on a non-priority channel while still checking for
calls on the priority channel, the Dual Watch feature let's you to do this
without using the scanner. When enabled, operation on any selected non-
priority remains normal as before, however, when a signal is received on
the priority channel or when you press the PTT switch, operation immedi-
ately shifts to the priority channel. The rate at which the Dual Watch fea-
ture samples the priority channel can be set by the user.
 To begin Dual Watch operation, first assign a priority channel as
described before, then select the non-priority channel you wish to
operate on.
 Press and hold the S/DW button until the second beep sounds, "DW"
(but not "S") will appear at the top of the display.
 To manually shift to the priority channel, press the PTT switch. At
this time you make transmit, otherwise, if no signal is received within
2 seconds, operation will revert back to the other selected Dual Watch
channel.
 To turn off the Dual Watch Feature, press and hold the S/DW button
again ("DW " will disappear in the display).
When the rechargeable Ni-Cd battery pack voltage reaches a low level,
the " " indicator appears at the lower right corner of the LCD, and
the "BUSY/TX" indicator will blinks red. Immediately remove the Ni-
Cd pack and install a freshly charged battery pack, or insert the radio
into the charging stand for a complete recharge cycle. If you plan to
operate your radio for extended periods of time, you may want to keep
a spare, fully-charged pack handy.
