This key allows you to adjust the luminosity of the display.
7) BEEP:
When you finish speaking and you release the «push-to-talk» switch to allow
your correspondent to speak, a «beep» sounds. Radio CB is what is known as
a «simplex» method of communication, that is to say, that you cannot listen
and speak at the same time (as you can, for example, with the telephone).
It was custom to say «roger» to indicate to your correspondent that you'd
finished speaking and that it was his turn to talk. The word «roger» has now
been replaced with a beep, hence its name, «Roger Beep».
By depressing this key once, the roger beep is activated. To cancel out the
beep, depress the same key.
