IMPORTANT:
Do not release the PTT button at any given time when talking on the radio. Whether you are
transmitting using the PTT button or using an in-line PTT on the earpiece accessory, always
ensure the PTT button is pressed firmly until the transmission is finished. Releasing the PTT
button while transmitting and trying to immediately press the PTT button again causes the radio
to sound a loud tone.
Wait for two seconds and press PTT again to continue speaking. If you press the PTT button
to transmit and a busy tone is received instead of a TPT, this means the channel is either not
available, busy or there are no users reachable within transmission range.
8.2
Talk Permit Tone
Talk Permit Tone (TPT) is a quick distinctive double beep tone that sounds after you press the PTT
button, indicating the channel is free to talk.
TPT ensures orderly communications by preventing radios from transmitting over ongoing
conversations.
NOTE: To ensure your words are not cut off, wait for the TPT to end and speak.
