TONE SQUELCH OPERATION
■ Tone squelch operation
The transceiver is equipped with 51 CTCSS tone frequencies,
104 DTCS codes. CTCSS/DTCS operation provides commu-
nication with silent standby since you will only receive calls
from group members using the same CTCSS tone frequen-
cy/DTCS code.
NOTE: Channels 5 and 35 are used for the emergency
channels, and CTCSS/DTCS operation is not available on
these channels.
DSetting CTCSS tone frequency/
DTCS code
q Select the desired channel except for channels 5 and 35.

w Push and hold [Top]
(Set Mode) for 2 sec. to enter set
mode.
e Push [Top] several times until “C” appears.
r Push to toggle the CTCSS tone frequency/DTCS
code setting mode.
t Push [CH Up] or [CH Down] to set the desired CTCSS
tone frequency/DTCS code.
y Rotate [VOL] to turn the power OFF, or push and hold
[Top]
(Set Mode) for 2 sec. to exit set mode.

NOTE: The transceiver has 51 tone frequencies and con-
sequently their spacing is narrow compared with units hav-
ing 38 tones. Therefore, some tone frequencies may
receive interference from adjacent tone frequencies.
