Selecting a Group
A group is simply a collection of channels grouped together for scanning or voting. Select a group the
same way as a channel.
Receiving a Call
The T2020
II
remains muted until another user makes a call. Listen for your call-sign when you hear
activity, and reply promptly by identifying yourself (for example ‘Mobile-9 receiving’).
The BUSY indicator in the display appears whenever there is any activity on the channel. Your radio
may only unmute the speaker for some of this activity, depending on which signalling options are fitted
to your radio. Consult your Tait dealer about the signalling options available.
Using the Monitor Key
The Monitor ( ) key enables you to monitor a channel for other users, regardless of the muting
controls programmed into your radio. There are three types of muting control which may screen your
calls:
RF squelch
Permits reception only if the radio's signals exceed a preset threshold. This
ensures that only intelligible signals are audible.
CTCSS or DCS mute
Permits reception only if a signal carries an inaudible tone or code specific to
your fleet or group.
Selcall mute
Permits reception only if the signal carries a special audible tone sequence
at the beginning of the transmission.
Note:
The RF Squelch is always programmed to operate in your radio, but the CTCSS, DCS or
Selcall mutes are optional, depending on the way your radio is programmed.
