Subaudible tone operation

D Tone squelch operation
The tone squelch opens only when receiving a signal con-
taining a matching subaudible tone. You can silently wait for
calls from group members using the same tone.
Set the operating frequency.
Set the desired subaudible tone in set mode.
• See right for programming.
Push [TONE] one or more times until "TSQL" appears.
When the received signal includes a matching tone,
squelch opens and the signal can be heard.
• When the received signal's tone does not match, tone squelch
does not open, however, the S-indicator shows signal strength.
• To open the squelch manually, push and hold [MONI].
Operate the transceiver in the normal way.
To cancel the tone squelch, push [TONE].
NOTE: The transceiver has 50 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.
CONVENIENT
Store subaudible tone frequencies and tone squelch ON/OFF
settings in memories (call) for easy recall.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
D Setting subaudible tones for
tone squelch operation (CTCSS tones)
Separate tone frequencies can be set for tone squelch oper-

available—see below). Like repeater tones, these are set in
set mode.
Select VFO or a memory channel.
Push [
SET] for 1 sec. to enter
(H/L)
set mode.
Push [TONE] or [H/L] one or more
times until "CT" appears.
