QT/DQT Setup (Analog)
Quiet Talk (QT) and Digital Quiet Talk (DQT) are functions that reject undesired
signals on your channel. You will hear a call only when you receive a signal that
contains a matching QT tone or DQT code. If a call containing a different tone or
code is received, squelch will not open and you will not hear the call. Likewise,
when transmitting using QT tone or DQT code, the receiving station must have a
matching tone or code to hear your call.
Be aware that other parties can still hear your calls if they set up their transceiver
with the same tone or code.
