Quik-Call II (QCII) is a "Non-ASTRO" signaling protocol that is used by certain Conventional Systems, and therefore for certain Conventional - channels. QCII is a sequential tone protocol normally associated with portable radios and pagers where the decoding of specific tone sequences sent from a radio or dispatch center allows individual radios, or groups of radios, to receive messages (Pages or Selective Calls) intended only for them. This is a feature commonly used by rural fire departments.
Currently, only Quik-Call II Decode is supported by APX radios. |

When the Non-ASTRO System field selects a QCII Conventional System, the Non-ASTRO Signaling Type field must be set to "Quik-Call II". |
