] key, and then press the [

10-9   CTCSS (CONTINUOUS TONE CONTROLLED SQUELCH SYSTEM

)   

CTCSS  function  will  enable  the  AR6000  to  selectively  receive  only  specifically  modulated  sub-audible 

tones or to verify the CTCSS frequency used. 

Note: This function operates only in the NFM mode with a frequency of 25 MHz or higher. 

 

To activate the function, perform the following steps: 

 1. Press the [

FUNC

] key, and then press the [

0

] key. 

 

 2. Press the [

DOWN

] key several times to select “CTCSS” in reverse contrast.  

*

 AFC does only work in NFM mode with a filter setting up to 30kHz. 

*

 It does not automatically retune the receiver to the nearest strong signal. 

Example: If there is a signal at 150MHz, but the user tunes the receiver to 

149.5MHz, the AFC function will NOT retune the receiver to 150MHz! 

*

 Real function of AFC: It tunes the IF filter's frequency automatically when 

an unstable frequency is received. It does not change the receive frequency. 

Since  only  IF  is  changed,  there  is  no  "visual"  change  on  the  control 

program's spectrum or frequency display. The change can only be heard on 

"audio". 

*

 It only works if the sending station's frequency shifts are within the selected 

IF filter's bandwidth.  

For example: IF=15kHz >> +/-7kHz, IF=30kHz >> +/-15kHz
