line 2 will be disregarded and the previous selection will remain active. If the time-out activates while an
entry is pending, the entry on line 2 will be selected if it is within the valid range; if it is out of range, the
entry on line 2 will be disregarded and the previous selection will remain active.

mode process the radio will return to the normal receive mode display. Continuing with the

selection mode time out has not yet expired. Any press of the PTT button during the selection
mode process will initiate transmission and exit the selection mode.
