8 .   Now switch the radio

 OFF

 then 

ON 

again to return to 

normal operation .

Note:

 To disable the sending or receiving of CTCSS tones, 

set either tone to 00 . If both transmit and receive tones are 
set to 00, the CTCSS function is disabled and cannot be 
selected

.

ENABLING THE CTCSS FUNCTION ON A 

CHANNEL

1 .  Select the required channel .

2 .   Briefly press the 

F

 key followed by the 

SILENT key

 . 

A high beep will be heard and the 'SILENT' icon will 
appear . 

You may activate CTCSS on as many channels as you wish 
except the emergency channel 5 .

To de-activate CTCSS, repeat steps 1 & 2 above . A low beep 
will be heard and 'SILENT' will disappear .

HOW TO DISABLE FEATURES

The TX4400 has a number of features that can be disabled 
by the user to allow for much simpler operation . This is 
done by disabling one or more of the keys on the front 
panel . These include the 

Function

,

 Scan/Dim

,

 OS/GS/

Page

Duplex/Alpha

 and the 

Quiet/Silent

 keys . 

To disable one of the keys:

1 .  Turn the radio 

OFF

 .

2 .   Press and hold the key you wish to disable while turning 

the radio back 

ON

 .

A low beep will be heard and the selected key will no 
longer function . 

To re-enable the key, repeat the steps above . When the 
radio is turned on again, a high beep will be heard and the 
key will function normally again .

For example, to disable the SCAN function:

1 .  Turn the radio 

OFF

 .

2 .   Press and hold the 

SCAN

 key while turning the radio 

back 

ON

 . A low beep will be heard and the SCAN 

function will no longer be available .

Repeat the procedure to re-enable the SCAN function .

REPEATERS

A repeater system consists of a linked transmitter/receiver 
combination installed in a prominent location . The repeater 
is designed to receive signals on a designated channel and 
re-transmit them on another channel .

Repeaters are usually located on hills, mountains or tall 
buildings . The increased elevation greatly improves the 
range of the repeater beyond that of a normal base or 
mobile . This means that the repeaters are able to receive 
and retransmit signals to radios that would otherwise be 
out of range of each other .
