SET MODES

Using the Set mode

The Set mode is used to change the settings of the
transceiver's functions.

Set mode items

NOTE: The Set mode items contained in the
transceiver may be different, depending on the
transceiver's version or presetting. Ask your dealer
for details.

Repeater tone frequency

Select the subaudible tone needed to access the repeater.
A total of 50 tone frequencies (67.0 ~ 254.1 Hz) are
selectable.

Tone squelch frequency

Select the CTCSS tones to use for the Tone Squelch
function. A total of 50 tones (67.0 ~ 254.1 Hz) are
selectable.

The transceiver has 50 CTCSS tones and
consequently their spacing is narrow compared with
units having 38 tones. Therefore, some CTCSS
tones may receive interference from adjacent tone
frequencies.

Scan resume setting
Select the scan resume option from SCt. 5, SCt. 10,
SCt. 15, or SCP. 2.
• SCt. 5/10/15: The scan pauses for 5 to 15 seconds,
when a signal is received.
• SCP.2: The scan pauses, then resumes 2
seconds after the signal disappears.
