Version: 1.11 Function Reference 172 BASIC OPERATION2.10 Transmit2.10.1 Conventional GroupThe transceiver transmits the programmed QT/DQT whilepressing the PTT switch to transmit. When thetransmitted QT/DQT code matches the QT/DQT codeconfigured in the receiving party’s transceiver, you cancommunicate with the receiving party.The Reverse Burst and the Turn-off code in QT aretransmitted when releasing the PTT switch to close thespeaker of the receiving party’s transceiver.You must configure the Transmit Frequency and theEncode ID using KPG-89D.! Transceiver operation1. Select the Zone-Channel. (Refer to 2.4 Changingthe Zone, 2.5 Changing the CH/GID.)2. Confirm that the channel is available.3. Speak into the microphone while pressing the PTTswitch.4. Release the PTT switch to finish transmitting.! Configuration using KPG-89D• Configuring the Transmit Frequency (Refer to6.3.4 Transmit Frequency.)• Configuring the QT/DQT Encode (Refer to 6.3.6QT/DQT Encode.)2.10.2 Trunking SystemThe transceiver sends the LTR ID while pressing the PTTswitch to transmit. The transceiver connects to therepeater and waits to acknowledge the data that isechoed back. If the data is correct, the transceiverassumes the connection is properly established and re-transmits a call to the receiving party.When the transmitted LTR ID matches the LTR IDconfigured in the receiving party's transceiver, you cancommunicate with the receiving party.The transceiver transmits the EOT data when the PTTswitch is released to close the squelch of the receivingparty's transceiver.You must configure the Transmit Frequency and theEncode ID using KPG-89D.! Transceiver Operation1. Select the Zone-Group. (Refer to 2.4 Changingthe Zone, 2.5 Changing the CH/GID.)2. Press the PTT switch.3. Speak into the microphone.4. Release the PTT switch.The transceiver returns to the receiving mode.! Configuration using KPG-89D• Configuring the Transmit Frequency (Refer to6.4.4 Transmit Frequency.)• Configuring the Encode ID (Refer to 6.6.3 EncodeID.)2.11 Transmitting with TalkAroundThis function allows you to communicate to anothertransceiver without using a repeater. (Refer to 13 TalkAround.)2.11.1 Conventional Group! Transceiver Operation1. Select the Zone-Group. (Refer to 2.4 Changingthe Zone, 2.5 Changing the CH/GID.)2. Press the PF Talk Around key.3. Press the PTT switch.The transceiver transmits on the ReceiveFrequency using the Receive QT/DQT instead ofthe Transmit Frequency and the Transmit QT/DQTto make a call.2.11.2 Trunking System! Transceiver Operation1. Select the Talk Around Group.2. Press the PTT switch or the PF Talk Around key.The transceiver transmits on the ReceiveFrequency using the Receive QT/DQT instead ofthe Transmit Frequency and the Transmit QT/DQTto make a call.
