Abstract
Abstract A two-way radio having a receiver (20) for receiving a radio signal including a voice message, a storage element (45) coupled to the receiver for storing the voice message received, a voice input device (49) for inputting voice messages, a user-actuable selection input (15) for receiving a user input to change between a transmit mode and a repeat mode and a transmitter (21) selectively coupled to the storage element and the voice input device for selectively transmitting input voice messages when in the transmit mode and retransmitting the stored voice message when in the repeat mode. A detection circuit (47) detects the radio signal and a control circuit (50) coupled to the receiver, the transmitter and the detection circuit operates in the repeat mode for activating the transmitter (21) to retransmit the voice message when the detection circuit (47) detects that the radio signal ends.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
A two-way radio comprising: a receiver for receiving a radio signal including a voice message; a storage element coupled to the receiver for storing the voice message received; a voice input device for inputting voice messages; a user-actuable selection input for receiving a user input to change between a transmit mode and a repeat mode; a transmitter selectively coupled to the storage element and the voice input device for selectively transmitting input voice messages when in the transmit mode and retransmitting the stored voice message when in the repeat mode; a detection circuit for detecting the radio signal; a control circuit coupled to the receiver, the transmitter and the detection circuit and operable in the repeat mode for activating the transmitter to retransmit the voice message when the detection circuit detects that the radio signal ends.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
136 words
A two-way radio comprising: a receiver for receiving a radio signal including a voice message; a storage element coupled to the receiver for storing the voice message received; a voice input device for inputting voice messages; a user-actuable selection input for receiving a user input to change between a transmit mode and a repeat mode; a transmitter selectively coupled to the storage element and the voice input device for selectively transmitting input voice messages when in the transmit mode and retransmitting the stored voice message when in the repeat mode; a detection circuit for detecting the radio signal; a control circuit coupled to the receiver, the transmitter and the detection circuit and operable in the repeat mode for activating the transmitter to retransmit the voice message when the detection circuit detects that the radio signal ends.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
67 words
A radio according to claim 1 further comprising a signalling decoder for decoding signalling information included in the radio signal, wherein the control circuit is coupled to the signalling decoder to respond thereto by initiating the transmitter to retransmit the received voice message when the signalling information is received with the voice message and to operate in the transmit mode when the signalling information is not received.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
167 words
A two-way radio comprising: a receiver for receiving a radio signal including a voice message and signalling information; a storage element coupled to the receiver for storing the voice message received; a voice input device for inputting voice messages; a signalling decoder for decoding the signalling information; a transmitter selectively coupled to the storage element and the voice input device and operable in a transmit mode and a repeat mode, for selectively transmitting input voice messages when in the transmit mode and retransmitting the stored voice message when in the repeat mode; a detection circuit for detecting the radio signal; a control circuit coupled to the receiver, the transmitter, the signalling decoder and the detection circuit, where the control circuit is operable to change the transmitter from transmit mode to the repeat mode in response to the decoder decoding the signalling information and, when in the repeat mode, to activate the transmitter to retransmit the voice message when the detection circuit detects that the radio signal ends.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
167 words
A two-way radio comprising: a receiver for receiving a radio signal including a voice message and signalling information; a storage element coupled to the receiver for storing the voice message received; a voice input device for inputting voice messages; a signalling decoder for decoding the signalling information; a transmitter selectively coupled to the storage element and the voice input device and operable in a transmit mode and a repeat mode, for selectively transmitting input voice messages when in the transmit mode and retransmitting the stored voice message when in the repeat mode; a detection circuit for detecting the radio signal; a control circuit coupled to the receiver, the transmitter, the signalling decoder and the detection circuit, where the control circuit is operable to change the transmitter from transmit mode to the repeat mode in response to the decoder decoding the signalling information and, when in the repeat mode, to activate the transmitter to retransmit the voice message when the detection circuit detects that the radio signal ends.
