A NOTE ABOUT THE CTCSS or DCS CODES
This radio incorporates 38 CTCSS ( C ontinuos T one C oded S quelch S ystem) codes
and 83 DCS ( D igital C oded S quelch) codes that, when activated, prevent the user
from hearing other radios that do not have the same code. These codes do not make
your conversation private. If you experience difficulties contacting or hearing other
radios in your group make sure the
CTCSS or DCS code is set the same on all radios.
If you are using the 75-517 where interference from other radios or electrical devices
are present, enabling the
CTCSS or DCS codes will usually mute the interference.
Many times interference will be noticed by the presence of loud static from the
speaker.
