Icom IC-W2E - Pocket Beep and Tone Squelch Functions

transceiver emits beep tones for 30 sec. and flashes ‘(:«)).”"

POCKET BEEP AND TONE SQUELCH 16
@ Tone squelch
The tone squelch opens only when receiving a signal with the
same subaudible tone as that pre-programmed. You can si-
lently wait for a call from group members using the same tone.
1) Program the subaudible tone frequency in SET mode.
* See p. 20 for programming details.
2) Push [@T/P.B/T SQL] several times until ‘‘T SQL” ap-
pears on the function display.
3) When the received signal includes the correct tone, the
squelch opens and the signal can be heard.
* When the received signal includes an incorrect tone, the squelch
does not open. Only the green indicator lights up.
* To open the squelch manually, push and hold [MONI].
4) Operate the transceiver in the normal way (push [PTT] to
transmit; release [PTT] to receive).
5) To cancel the tone squelch, push [(8)T/P.B/T SQL] sever-
al times until ‘‘T"’ or “'T SQL" disappears from the func-
tion display.
