Tone squelch operation

Tone squelch operation is a method of communica- tions using selective calling. Only received signals having a matching tone will open the squelch. Before communicating using tone squelch, all members of your party must agree on the tone squelch frequency to use.

Push [MODE] one or more times to select FM mode.

Push and hold [DISPLAY] to enter Quick Set mode.

Push [MENU] one or more times to select item Q7

TONE SQL.

[Y]/[Z] or [M-CH] can also be used.

Rotate the main dial to select the desired subaudi- ble tone frequency.

Available tone frequencies are the same as for repeater tone operation (see previous page).

Select M4 and turn the tone squelch function ON.

Push [(F-3)TON] to toggle tone squelch opera- tion ON and OFF.

When tone squelch is turned ON, “TSQL” appears in the display.

Communicate in the usual manner.

Push [PTT] to transmit; release to receive.

Set the tone frequency (quick set mode).

Tone scan operation

By monitoring a signal that is being transmitted on a repeater input frequency, you can determine the tone frequency necessary to open a repeater.

During tone squelch or repeater operation, push and hold [DISPLAY] to enter Quick Set mode.

Push [MENU] one or more times to select item Q8 T-SQL SCN during tone squelch operation, or

Q8 RPTR-T SCN during repeater operation.

[Y]/[Z] or [M-CH] can also be used.

Push [(F-3)SCN] to toggle tone scan operation ON and OFF.

While scanning tone frequencies are displayed instead of the operating frequency.

When a matched tone is detected, tone scan automati- cally stops, the matched tone is displayed and the repeater tone (or tone squelch tone) setting is automat- ically adjusted accordingly.

Push [DISPLAY] to return to the main menu.
