DTMF
DTMF stands for Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency. Basically DTMF is an advanced signaling method that uses dual sinusoidal signals
for any given code. A good example of DTMF in use is a touch tone telephone system. In two-way radio systems, DTMF is mainly
used for automation systems and for remote control. For example, DTMF can be used to remotely activate repeaters by
transmitting a specific sequence of numbers.

The Baofeng UV-5R allows for full implementation of DTMF. The numerical and the [SCAN] and [LOCK] buttons correspond to
the matching DTMF tones. The numeric buttons correspond to the same DTMF tones, but to access the A, B, C, & D codes, the
[MENU], [UP], [DOWN], and [EXIT] buttons are used, respectively.
To send DTMF codes, press the buttons corresponding to the message you want to send while holding down the [PTT] button.
See below for the mapping of DTMF tones to the keypad.
