talk.
Call Received If programmed, a single alert tone
sounds when a group call is received
and a two tone alert (one high

for an individual call.
Call Queued
(EDACS)
If one short, high pitched tone

this indicates that the system has
placed the request in a queue. This
tone sounds at both the transmitting
unit and the receiving unit(s),
indicating to the user on the receiving
end that they will receive a call
shortly. If the PTT is unkeyed while

channel becomes available. (See
