10You will hear calls only when the selected tone is

11received. To answer the call, press and hold the PTT

12switch, then speak into the microphone.

13Note:

You cannot use the CTCSS and Tone functions simultaneously.

14Switching the CTCSS function ON after activating the Tone function

15

 

deactivates the Tone function.

If you select a high CTCSS frequency, receiving audio or noise that

16

 

contains the same frequency portions may cause CTCSS to function

17

 

incorrectly. To prevent noise from causing this problem, select an

 

appropriate squelch level {page 8}.
