- If a signal is received, the RX remains
on that channel until the signal is gone.
|
OFF / ON |
| 11 RCODE |
RX Tone or Digital Coded Squelch - CTCSS
/ DCS
- Prevents interference from
signals on the same frequency.
- The squelch will open only if the incoming signal is
coded with the same tone/code required by your receiver.
- Note: Not all repeaters requiring a tone/code for access
transmit a tone back to you. Leave this
function turned OFF unless you are absolutely sure it is needed.

| 14 PTT-ID |
When to send the PTT ID signal code
OFF - No ID is sent.
BOT - An ID is sent at Beginning of Transmission
END - An ID is sent at the End of
Transmission.
BOTH - An ID is sent at BOT and EOT
- This tells a dispatcher
which field radio was keyed.
- Not Applicable for Ham use. Set to OFF.

Busy Channel Lockout
- Prevents transmitting on a busy
frequency.
- If another repeater or signal is present
using a different CTCSS or DCS code, your transmitter
will be 'locked out' to prevent interference.
When PTT is keyed, radio will sound a Beep Tone.
|

| 23 SCANM |
Scan Resume Method
TO (Time Operation) Scan stops when signal detected.
Scan resumes after after predetermined time.
CO (Carrier Operation) Scan stops when signal detected.
Scan resumes when signal disappears.
SE (Search Operation) Scan stops when signal detected.
Scanning will not resume.
