6. Perform a CUE net entry. You loaded the CUE frequency into your RT so
any station whose RT is not loaded with your FH data can contact you to
enter your net. During a time when the net is idle "CUE" appears on your
display.
You must answer the CUE and determine what the CUEing station
wants.
Remember the net members do not have the CUE frequency loaded and
will not receive the CUE signal.
If you leave the FH net temporarily to
answer the CUE call you must inform the net. Depending on local SOP you may
have an alternate NCS answer the CUE call.
a. Set the CHAN switch to CUE and respond to the CUE call.
