You may sometimes want to hear calls only from specific persons. The
Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) allows you to ignore (not
hear) unwanted calls from other persons who are using the same frequency. To
do so, select the same CTCSS tone as selected by the other persons in your
group. A CTCSS tone is subaudible and is selectable from among 42 tone
frequencies.
Available CTCSS Frequencies
67.0

listening to unwanted conversations.
