BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)
If set up by your dealer, you will be unable to transmit on a conventional channel
if it is already in use. Under these circumstances, use a different channel or wait
until the channel becomes free.
However, if BCL Override has also been programmed, you can transmit overtop
of the current signal:
1 Press and hold the microphone PTT switch.
If the channel is already in use, a warning tone will sound.
2 Release the microphone PTT switch, then press and hold the microphone
PTT switch again within half a second.
3 Speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal transmission.
