SCAN RESUME METHOD
The transceiver stops scanning at the frequency (or
memory channel) where a signal is detected.  It then
continues or stops scanning according to which Resume
Mode you have selected.
¥ Time-Operated Mode (default)
The transceiver remains on a busy frequency (or
memory channel) for approximately 5 seconds, then
continues to scan even if the signal is still present.
¥ Carrier-Operated Mode
The transceiver remains on a busy frequency (or
memory channel) until the signal drops out....

SELECTIVE CALL
CTCSS AND DCS
You may sometimes want to hear calls from only
specific persons or groups.  In this case, use the
Selective Call.  This transceiver is equipped with
CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System) and
DCS (Digital Coded Squelch).  These Selective Calls
allow you to ignore (not hear) unwanted calls from other
persons who are using the same frequency.  The
transceiver unmutes only when it receives a signal
having the same CTCSS tone or DCS code.
Note:  CTCSS and DCS do not...

¥ As you turn the Tuning control, the selection cycles as
follows:  ÒOFFÓ Þ ÒTONEÓ Þ ÒCTCSSÓ Þ ÒDCSÓ  Þ ÒOFFÓ.
3Press [MENU].
¥ ÒCTÓ appears on the upper part of display, indicating
that the CTCSS function is activated.
4Press any key other than [MENU], [MONI/SQL], and
[LAMP] to exit Menu Mode.
When CTCSS is ON, you will hear calls only when the
selected CTCSS tone is received.  To answer the call,
press and hold [PTT], then speak into the microphone.

3Press [MENU] to store the new setting or [PTT] to
cancel.
Note:  To use the selected CTCSS tone, you must turn the CTCSSfunction ON {page 69}.

CTCSS Freq. ID Scan
This function scans through all CTCSS frequencies to
identify the incoming CTCSS frequency on the received
signal.  You may find this useful when you cannot recall
the CTCSS frequency that the other persons in your
group are using.
1Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select
Menu No. 4 (CT).
2Press [MENU] (1 s) to start the CTCSS Freq. ID
Scan.
¥ While scanning, the decimal point of CTCSS frequency
blinks.

73
DCS
DCS is similar to CTCSS.  However, instead of using an
analog audio tone, it uses a continuous sub-audible
digital waveform that represents a 3-digit octal number.
You can select a DCS code from among the 104 DCS
codes listed in the table on the next page.
Using DCS
1Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select
Menu No. 2 (T.CT.DCS).
2Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select
ÒDCSÓ.

Selecting a DCS Code
1While in DCS Mode, press [MENU] and turn the
Tuning control to select Menu No. 5 (DCS).
¥ The current DCS code appears.
2Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select
your desired DCS code.
¥ The available DCS codes are shown in the following
table.

DCS Code ID Scan
This function scans through all DCS codes to identify
the incoming DCS code on the received signal.  You
may find this useful when you cannot recall the DCS
code that the other persons in your group are using.

DTMF FUNCTIONS
This transceiver provides you with 10 dedicated DTMF
memory channels.  You can store a DTMF number (16
digits max.) in each of these channel to recall later for
speed dialing.
Many repeaters in the U.S.A. and Canada offer a
service called Autopatch.  You can access the public
telephone network via such a repeater by sending
DTMF tones.  For further information, consult your local
repeater reference.
