How to Broadcast a Radio Message on a Radio with Numeric Assigned Frequencies

 

1.      Make sure the radio is turned on and the volume is turned up.

2.      Use the up and down arrow buttons on the left side of the screen to select the correct frequency.  If a crisis has been declared,  press the P2 button below the screen to immediately access the Emergency frequency (Blue, # 1), or you may use the up and down buttons.

3.      Depress the side broadcast button and hold it down while you speak.

4.      Speak your message, and then release the side broadcast button.

5.      With the side broadcast button released, you will be able to hear what others are broadcasting.

6.      You may also use the P3 button to scan all frequencies except Yellow.  The scanner will stop on a broadcast on any frequency, and then continue to scan other frequencies.  If you choose to broadcast when the scanner stops for another person’s broadcast, the scanner ceases and remains on that frequency.  You may manually stop the scanner by pressing the P3 button a second time.
