SUBAUDIBLE TONE OPERATION
■
Tone scan
The transceiver can detect the subaudible tone frequency in a
received signal. By monitoring a signal that is being transmit-
ted on a repeater input frequency, you can determine the tone
frequency required to access the repeater.
q
Set the desired frequency or memory channel to be
checked for a tone frequency.
w
Turn the tone squelch ON or OFF to check the tone
squelch frequency or repeater tone frequency, respectively.

Push the desired band’s [
(M/C)
SCN] for 2 sec. to enter the

ically selects the tone squelch function when the scan screen is
selected.

• The tone frequency is set temporarily on a memory or call chan-
nel. Program into the memory or call channel to store the tone
frequency permanently.

quency or tone squelch frequency, depending on the tone
squelch ON/OFF setting.
