To check that you’ve input the details correctly, switch to memory mode by pressing the VFO/MR button.
You can then scroll through the memorised frequencies using the up/down buttons, or go directly to a
specific memory channel number using the numeric keypad.
Setting DCS or CTCSS Tones
There are four settings: Two for DCS transmit/receive, and two for CTCSS transmit/receive. They are
menu items 10, 11, 12 & 13.
The simplest way of setting these is to input them while you are storing your frequencies in memory.
Once you have selected your frequency, go to the menu item that pertains to the tones you require
(either DCS or CTCSS), and select the tone you want before storing the frequency as per the instructions
above.
If a DCS or CTCSS tone is active on RX (not TX) on the frequency you have selected, the letters CT or DCS
will appear in the display on the left side. Remember that for repeater access you only want to set the
tone for TX, NOT RX – so in all cases menu items 10 & 11 must be set to OFF.
Adding DCS or CTCSS Tones to a Repeater (Duplex) Frequency already stored in Memory
In this example we are adding the 67.0 Hz CTCSS tone to the 2m repeater frequency stored in memory
position 17 (RX 145.775 MHz/TX 145.175 MHz):
