Midland Radio 120/320 CHANNEL UHF-HIGH BAND MOBILE Car Stereo System User Manual


 
Titan Mobile User’s Guide
2-tone signaling allows users to receive only calls intended for them.
However, more than one radio transmitting at a time will still cause
interference. Do not transmit if the BUSY icon is on. Wait until the
channel is clear before transmitting.
Transmitting to Other Radios
Before transmitting, the FCC requires you monitor the channel to
make sure it is clear. Transmitting while someone else is
transmitting will create interference and disrupt both
conversations.
Follow these steps to transmit to other radios.
1. Monitor the channel by pressing the MON button. Channel activity is also
indicated by the BUSY icon.
2. If the channel is clear, press and hold the push to talk (PTT) switch on the
side of the microphone.
3. The TX icon will display while the radio is transmitting.
4. Hold the microphone approximately 2 inches from your mouth and speak
across the face of the microphone in a clear, normal voice.
5. Keep the PTT switch pressed until you have finished speaking.
6. Release the PTT switch to return to receive mode.
Do not shout! It will only create distortion.
Press PTT before you start talking and release PTT after you have
finished speaking.
Your radio doesn’t allow you to talk and receive simultaneously, so keep
your transmission short. When you are transmitting, other people can
not. Use common sense and do not occupy the channel too much.
The radio might be programmed with a timeout timer which will
automatically end your transmission after a preset time. In this case
release PTT and wait for a few seconds. The radio transmitter will be
enabled again after a few seconds. Ask your dealer or communications
coordinator for further details.
The radio might be programmed for busy channel lock out, which
automatically disables the transmitter if your channel is busy. In this
case wait until the channel is clear.
