Limiting call time
Your radio may limit the amount of time you can talk
(transmit) continuously. This is known as the ‘transmit
timer’ or ‘time-out timer’ and allows other radio users
to make calls on that channel.
The radio warns you before the transmit timer expires
by beeping three times. The red status LED flashes
and the message Transmit timeout imminent
appears in the display.
