DTMF FUNCTIONS
This transceiver provides you with 10 dedicated DTMF memory
channels. You can store a DTMF code (16 digits max.) in each of
these channels to recall later for speed dialing.
Manual Dialing
The numeric keypad functions as a DTMF keypad; the 12 keys
found on a touch-tone phone plus 4 additional keys (A, B, C, D) on
the rightmost column.
To perform Manual Dialing, follow the steps below.

When DTMF TX Hold is ON, you do not need to continuously
press
[PTT]
to remain in Transmission Mode. However,
Transmission Mode is retained for only 2 seconds after
pressing a key, so if the next key is not pressed within this
time limit, the transceiver stops transmitting.
