When the CTCSS or DTCS squelch function is ON,
the tone encoder is activated while transmitting.
6. Operate the transceiver in a normal way; push
[PTT] to transmit, release [PTT] to receive.
7. When a signal with matching tones or codes is
received, the squelch opens and audio is heard.

To manually open the squelch, push [MONI].

If the signal includes an unmatching tones,
the squelch does not open. However, the icon
shows the strength of the received signal.
8. To cancel the tone or DTCS squelch, push
[FUNC], and then push [TONE] several times,
until the tone icon disappears.
CTCSS burst:
While using the tone squelch, noise may be heard
just when the received signal disappears.
To eliminate the noise, the transceiver has the
CTCSS Burst function. See page 8-7 for details.
