Operation
12
transmitting is prohibited (reporting "BUSY") if a (silent) carrier
containing any sub-tone is active on the channel while pressing PTT
.
Channels programmed with CTCSS will have a clear identification in the
service field, e.g. "CTCSS 22", while selected. Not all channels are allowed
for CTCSS use.
In maritime channel modes CTCSS is automatically disabled when
• Product is turned off
• A new channel is selected
For private channels and ALT channel mode, the feature will remain until
manually removed.
Scrambler
On channels where it is allowed, you can set up voice scrambling, using
configuration mode (see SCRM on page 25).
Please note that if the radio is operating with scrambling on a channel, it
is impossible to communicate with other radios that are not programmed
with the same scrambler code. For this reason, be very careful not to use
scrambled channels in emergency situations. Scrambled channels will
have a clear identification in the service field, e.g. "SCRM 3", while
selected. Not all regions allow the use of voice scrambling.
In maritime channel modes scrambling is automatically disabled when
• Product is turned off
• A new channel is selected
For private channels and ALT channel mode, scrambling will remain until
manually removed.
