During CTCSS Decode or DCS operation, you may set up the
FT-60R
such that a ringing
“bell” sound alerts you to the fact that a call is coming in. Here is the procedure for activat-
ing the CTCSS/DCS Bell:
1.
Set the transceiver up for CTCSS Decode (“Tone Squelch”) or DCS operation, as
described previously.
2.
Adjust the operating frequency to the desired channel.
3.
Press the [
F/W
] key, then press the [
5
(
BELL
)] key.
4.
Rotate the
DIAL
knob to set the desired number of rings of the
Bell. The available choices are “
1 T
,” “
3 T
,” “
5 T
,” or “
8 T
”
rings, “
CONT
” (continuous ringing), or “
OFF
.”
5.
Press the
PTT
switch momentarily to save the new setting and exit to normal opera-
tion.
When you are called by a station whose transceiver is sending a
CTCSS tone or DCS code which matches that set into your Decoder,
the Bell will ring in accordance with this programming.
