standards take this into account), if you find that your receiver squelch does not open when
both you and the other station are using a common DCS code, you or the other station (
but
not both
) can try the following:
(1) Press and hold in the [
MHz
] key for one second, then rotate the
Main Dial
knob to
select “
11 DCSNR
.”
(2) Press the [
MHz
] key, then rotate the
Main Dial
knob to select one of the following
modes:
TRX NOR
:
Encoder: Normal
Decoder: Normal
RX REV
:

Decoder: Reverse (Inverted)
TX REV
:
Encoder: Reverse (Inverted)
Decoder: Normal
TRX REV
:Encoder: Reverse (Inverted)
Decoder: Reverse (Inverted)
(3) Press and hold in the [
MHz
] key for one second to save the new setting and exit to

AGING
CTCSS Bell Paging adds an alert ringer to CTCSS tone squelch operation, for added
convenience. When you receive a call with a matching CTCSS tone, the ringer will sound
to alert you to the presence of the incoming call.
(1) Press and hold in the [
MHz
] key for one second, then rotate the
Main Dial
knob to
select “
05 BELL
.”
(2) Press the [
MHz
] key, then rotate the
Main Dial
knob to change the display to “
ON
.”
(3) To de-activate CTCSS Bell operation, select “
OFF
” in step (2) above.
Calls without a matching CTCSS tone will be ignored during CTCSS Bell operation.
Note that other stations do not need to have the CTCSS Bell function to call you; they can
just use standard CTCSS encoding.
When you reply to a CTCSS Bell call, you may want to turn off the Bell function, or else
the transceiver will ring every time your squelch opens.
You can store the CTCSS Bell Paging function into a memory, along with the CTCSS tone
and encode/decode state.
