R.F. Says: The VX-120/170 does not recognize the order of the 1st tone and the 2nd tone. In
other words, for example, the VX-120/170 considers both CTCSS pairs "10, 35" and "35, 10"
to be identical.

Paging Answer Back
When you press the PTT switch to respond to a page call, the VX-120/170 transmits the
same CTCSS tone pair. This tone pair will open the Code Squelch of the calling station. If you
prefer, you can have the VX-120/170 respond to page calls automatically ("transpond").
