8 Turn the MULTI/CH control to select the appropriate CTCSS frequency. • The selectable CTCSS frequencies are listed in the table below. 9 Press and hold [AGC/T (SEL)] or press [CLR] to complete the setting. No. Freq. (Hz) No. Freq. (Hz) No. Freq. (Hz) No. Freq. (Hz) 00 67.0 11 97.4 22 141.3 33 206.5 01 69.3 12 100.0 23 146.2 34 210.7 02 71.9 13 103.5 24 151.4 35 218.1 03 74.4 14 107.2 25 156.7 36 225.7 04 77.0 15 110.9 26 162.2 37 229.1 05 79.7 16 114.8 27 167.9 38 233.6 06 82.5 17 118.8 28 173.8 39 241.8 07 85.4 18 123.0 29 179.9 40 250.3 08 88.5 19 127.3 30 186.2 41 254.1 09 91.5 20 131.8 31 192.8 -- -10 94.8 21 136.5 32 203.5 -- -- You will hear calls only when the selected tone is received. To answer the call, press and hold Mic [PTT], then speak into the microphone. Skip steps 7 and 8 if you have already programmed the appropriate CTCSS frequency. Note: ◆ When using split-frequency operation, select FM mode on both VFOs to use CTCSS. ◆ You can select a CTCSS frequency independent of a tone frequency. ◆ You cannot use the CTCSS function with the Tone function. CTCSS FREQUENCY ID SCAN This function scans through all CTCSS frequencies to identify the incoming CTCSS frequency on a received signal. You may find this useful when you cannot recall the CTCSS frequency that the other persons in your group are using. 1 While the CTCSS function is ON, press and hold [AGC/T (SEL)]. • The current CTCSS frequency appears. 2 Press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to activate the CTCSS frequency ID scan. • While the transceiver is receiving a signal, " " blinks and every CTCSS frequency is scanned. When the CTCSS frequency is identified, the transceiver stops scanning and the identified frequency is displayed. 6 ENHANCED COMMUNICATIONS • Press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] or [CLR] to stop scanning while the CTCSS frequency ID scan is active. • Press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] again to resume scanning. Note: Received signals are audible while scanning is in progress. CROSS TONE Use this feature when using different uplink and downlink tones to access a repeater. You can set a transmission Tone frequency and reception CTCSS frequency to different frequencies. To set the transmission tone: 1 Press [A/B (A=B)] to select VFO A or VFO B. 2 Select your desired transmission frequency. 3 Press [FM/AM (FM-N)] to select FM. 4 Press [AGC/T (SEL)] until " " appears. 5 Press and hold [AGC/T (SEL)], then rotate the MULTI/CH control to select your desired Tone frequency. 6 Press and hold [AGC/T (SEL)] or press [CLR] to complete the setting. To set the reception tone: 1 Press [A/B (A=B)] to select the other VFO. 2 Select your desired reception frequency. 3 Press [FM/AM (FM-N)] to select FM. 4 Press [AGC/T (SEL)] until " " appears. 5 Press and hold [AGC/T (SEL)], then rotate the MULTI/CH control to select your desired CTCSS frequency. 6 Press and hold [AGC/T (SEL)] or press [CLR] to complete the setting. To set the Cross tone: 1 Press [SPLIT]. • "SPLIT" appears on the display. 2 Press [AGC/T (SEL)] until " " appears. Note: hen the cross tone function is ON, the Tone and CTCSS frequency cannot be changed. To change the Tone or CTCSS frequency, press [AGC/T (SEL)] to turn Tone or CTCSS ON, then change the setting. 27
