Hello

can you set up these radios to have a tone at the end of your transmit. and if so how do you go about doing this. I am interested in seeing about putting this at the end of our fire Dept. Work channel so when we are in fighting fire or what not no body cuts each other off til they hear that tone of even if it can be set up like BNSF does on there system

Are you talking about a MDC1200 ID type tone, or something else? There used to be GE tones among others I can't recall...

If you just want a "beep," DTMF signalling will accomplish that. On each channel you want the tone, scroll all the way to the right of the channel screen and under the LOG column, select "L-OFF". Then go to DTMF -> DTMF Autodial, and set "Log/ID" to be a single digit.

This should accomplish what you want.

Maybe use "BCLO" if your radio has that feature? Busy channel lock out would keep every one from keying on each other.

No bclo on this model-more of a trait of motorola and vertex, no mdc1200 or fleetsync or ge-star with out boards that you have to buy. Was not a big demand at the time production. Alot of the newer icom feature this as a standard feature.
