CTCSS/DCS tones
CTCSS and DCS tones are similar to access codes and enable the radio to communicate only with the users that are tuned on
the same channel and have set the same code. For each channel, you can set up to 50 CTCSS tones and 210 DCS codes. The

frequency but with different CTCSS/DCS tones won’t be received.
