currently registered on a site, “SITE x” is displayed,
where“x”isthesitenumber.Ifthesiteislocked(see
following), “LOCK x” is displayed instead. The
display then indicates the RSSI (Receive Signal
Strength Indicator) value of the current site as “RSSI
x” and then returns to displaying the channel alias.
Searching For a New Site
To display the RSSI level of the current site, press
the Site Search option switch (if programmed). The
current site number is then displayed as “SITE x”
followed by the RSSI level as “RSSI x”. If the Site
Search option switch is not pressed again, this mode is
automatically exited and the normal channel informa-
tion again displayed.
To scroll through the other programmed sites,
repeatedly press the Site Search option switch while
“SITE x” or “RSSI x” is displayed. Each time it is
pressed, the information for the next site is displayed.
To select the displayed site, simply do not press the
switch again and that site is selected when the normal
channel display returns. If site lock is on when site
search is entered (see following), the radio will be
locked on the new site when this function is exited.
Locking/Unlocking a Site
It is sometimes desirable to stay on the current
site regardless of signal level. To lock the radio on the
current site so that it does not search for another, press
the Site Lock option switch (if programmed). The
display then momentarily indicates “LOCK x” to indi-
cate that the current site is locked (“x” is the current
site number). To unlock the site, press the Lock switch
again and “UNLOCK” is momentarily displayed.
When locked on a site, it is still possible to search
for a different site using the site search function
described in the preceding section. When a new site is
found, the radio is then locked on that site.
