Ctcss Freq. Id - Kenwood TM-D700 E Instruction Manual

If using a MC-53DM, you can also use its keypad to
select a CTCSS frequency. First program one of the Mic
PF keys as the ENTER key {page 62}. In step 3, press
[ENTER], then enter 01 to 38 shown in the table {page
30}. To select 79.7 Hz, for example, press [ENTER], [0],
[5].
Note:
You can select a separate tone frequency for the CTCSS and Tone
functions.
You cannot use the CTCSS with the Tone or DCS function.
If you select a high tone frequency, receiving audio or noise that
contains the same frequency portions may cause CTCSS to function
incorrectly. To prevent noise from causing this problem, select an
appropriate noise squelch level {page 20}.
