CTCSS/DCS
CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System) and DCS
(Digitally Coded Squelch) is a quieting system that allows
a group of radios to talk to each other without hearing
other users on the channel. The system applies a continuous
low level tone to your transmission, and a matching tone
decoder to your receiver's Squelch. When CTCSS/DCS is
enabled the channel remains quiet until someone transmits
using the same tone. When the transmission ends, the
channel becomes quiet again. By using different tones,
several groups of people can share the same channel
without disturbing each other.
If CTCSS/DCS has been enabled by your retailer, it will have
been preset on specific channels.
INSTALLATION
The TX3600 Series is supplied with a slim, slide-on
mounting cradle. The cradle can be screwed or bolted in any
convenient location in your vehicle (under or above the dash,
on the centre console, etc) using the mounting slots provided
in the base. The TX3600 Series contains a built-in speaker
and can be installed with the speaker facing upwards or
downwards to ensure the receiver audio is projected clearly.
Alternatively, the TX3600 Series can be fitted with an
extension speaker if required.
When installing the radio, avoid mounting it close to heaters
or air conditioners. Screw the mounting cradle to a firm
surface. Slide the TX3600 Series into the cradle from the
front until it clicks into place. Finally, plug the power and
antenna leads to the sockets provided on the rear of the
radio.
