Privacy Codes
Your radio incorporates two advanced coded squelch systems
that can help to reduce interference from other users on any given
channel. CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System)
provides 38 privacy codes and DCS (Digitally Coded Squelch)
provides 83 privacy codes. This provides a total of 121 Privacy
Codes. Either system can be used on all channels, but both
systems

To successfully communicate using a privacy code, both the
sending and receiving radios must be tuned to the same channel
and to the same privacy code system (CTCSS or DCS)and privacy
code number. Each channel will remember the last privacy code
system and number you select.The privacy code 00 is not a privacy
code, but allows all signals to be heard on a channel that is set to
00 on both the CTCSS and DCS systems.
