User's Manual

The dealer can preset CTCSS/DCS signalling on all or just certain channels.

Note:

Although using CTCSS/DCS enables you to avoid hearing unwanted calls, it does

not mean your calls will be private.

Signalling AND/OR Logic

Signalling "AND"/"OR" sets the audio unmute condition for any channel programmed with

2-Tone or CTCSS/DCS.

2-Tone AND CTCSS/DCS:

The squelch opens only when both 2-Tone and CTCSS/DCS are received and matches

the preset one on selected channel.

2-Tone OR CTCSS/DCS:

The squelch opens when either 2-Tone or CTCSS/DCS is received and matches the

preset one on selected channel.

Channel Scan

■

Priority Channel Scan

Any programmed channel may be set as the priority channel. The radio will check the

priority channel periodically while stopping on a non-priority channel. When there is any

activity on the priority channel, the radio will automatically switch to the priority channel for

communications.

■ Scan Revert Channel

If the radio is scanning and you press the

[PTT] key, it will transmit on the preprogrammed

revert channel. The revert channel can be programmed by your dealer.

Busy Channel Lockout

If the Busy Channel Lockout feature is enabled by your dealer, it will prevent you from

talking on a channel that is already in use. When you press the

[PTT] key, the radio will

sound a beep tone and will not transmit. Release the

[PTT] key to stop the beep tone.

Wait until the channel is not in use before you again try to transmit.
