Tone scan
The transceiver can detect the subaudible tone frequency in a
received signal. By monitoring a signal that is being transmit-
ted on a repeater input frequency, you can determine the tone
frequency required to access the repeater.

checked for a tone frequency.

quency or tone squelch frequency, depending on the the tone
squelch ON/OFF setting.
