EXPLANATION AND USE OF RADIO SETUP FUNCTIONS
The radio setup functions, as noted earlier, provide ancillary features, such as Roger Beep, Call Tone,
etc.

with the priority channel selected from the HOT KEY menu.

The VOX delay time selection setting provides a transmission delay after you have finished speak-
ing. You may need to try different VOX time settings to determine the best value to suit your speak-

pause in your speech.
