action to set the function OFF.
1) ROGER BEEP
(t key on the unit or UP knob on microphone)
The ROGER BEEP sounds when the PTT switch (8) of the microphone
is released in order to let your correspondent speak. Historically as
CB is a "simplex" communication mode, it is not possible to speak
and listen at the same time (as it is the case with a telephone).
Once the conversation was over, he said "Roger" in order to pre-
vent his correspondent that it was his turn to talk. The word "Roger"
has been replaced by a significant beep. That is where the name
"Roger beep" comes from.
Use the following procedure to activated or deactivated the ROGER
BEEP function:
- Turn on the power while pressing the s key (2a) or UP knob (9) to
enable (rb on) or disable (rb oF) the ROGER BEEP function.

BEEP function is active. If the KEY BEEP function is not active, only
the correspondent can hear the ROGER BEEP.
In PA mode the function is not allowed.
