OPERATING MODES AND FEATURES

GMRS TWO WAY MODE

This feature allows the selection of main channels for communication as follows:

CODED TONE CONTROL SQUELCH SYSTEM (CTCSS) CODE SELECTION

When the CTCSS feature is enabled, the transceiver will only receive signals from other transceivers set to the same channel and privacy code. When the CTCSS mode is off, the transceiver will receive signals from all transceivers set to the same channel. Remember that the CTCSS feature does not prevent others from listening to your transmissions. It only allows your GMRS-1500XTM to ignore signals from transceivers not set to the same privacy code. Access the CTCSS code selection feature as follows:

1.From the GMRS TWO WAY mode (CH and CODE displayed), press the right (forward) menu scroll button (10) twice; the CODE number flashes on the display(5).

2.Press the Up Button (6) or the Down Button (11) to select the desired sub-code between 01 and 38.

3.Press the Monitor (M) button (14) to confirm your selection.

NOTE: To communicate with other units, they must be switched to the same channel and CTCSS sub-code. To communicate with other units that do not have subcodes, switch your unit to the same channel with the sub-code set to 00.
