  • Patent number: 4431991
    Abstract: An encoder for transmission of a digital deactivation code at the end of a variable length message transmission. The encoder adds a deactivation code to the end of an operator's transmitted message in order to inform the designated message receiving device that the message has concluded and thereby enable transmission of additional information immediately. Preferrably, the encoder transmits a digital deactivation code immediately following a variable length voice message transmission.
