USING QUIET CODES

This radio uses quiet (CTCSS) codes to screen out unwanted conversations, even if someone is transmitting nearby on the same channel. When a quiet code is set, the radio sends it every time PTT or CALL is pressed and only responds to signals that have the same code. Radios you plan to use together must be set to the same code. This radio has these quiet (CTCSS) codes.
