NOTE:
• DO NOT use the digital code squelch function when
communicating with two or more stations, because
the digital call sign squelch function opens only
when receiving a signal addressed to your own call
sign. Thus the digital call sign squelch function can
be used when communicating with only one station.
• While operating in the low-speed data communica-
tion mode, the digital squelch opens even if receiving
a signal is not addressed to your own call sign.
