For instance, you may use the Call channel as an emergency channel within your group. In this case, the Call/VFO scan {page 38} will be useful. The default frequency stored in the Call channel is 144.000 MHz for the VHF band and 440.000 MHz for the UHF band. The Call channel can be reprogrammed either as a simplex & repeater...
