Questions
If I change my mind and want to exit the request
for Private Call or I pressed the Top button by

status (Radio Top button LED indicator is blinking
orange)?

Descriptions
Long press the Top button. The radio exits the
private queue request and the Top button LED in-
dicator turns off, returning you to the radio normal
status.
Pressing the Top button only queues the radio B
ID. Therefore, there is no issue if two people press
the Top button at the same time. The issue occurs
when the two people press the PTT button at the
same time to talk privately to B. Whoever presses
the PTT button faster gets to talk privately to B.
The other user hears a "busy" or rejection tone.
