CTCSS/CDCSS Operation

Your scanner is equipped with a Continuous Tone Controlled Squelch System (CTCSS) and Continuous Digital Controlled Squelch System (CDCSS) which allow squelch to open only when the tone you have programmed with a specific frequency is received along with a transmission. When using CTCSS or CDCSS, consider the following:

￿Your Scanner Scan Speed becomes slow while Subaudible Tone function is activated.

￿You cannot enter CTCSS and CDCSS tones in the AM Air Band.
