TONE SQUELCH AND POCKET BEEP
N Tone scan
By monitoring a signal that is being operated with pocket beep,
tone or DTCS squelch function, you can determine the tone
frequency or DTCS code necessary to open the squelch.
q Set the desired operating frequency and the desired oper-
ating mode.
w Push and hold [TONE](M/CALL) for 1 sec. to enter the
tone selection state.
e Rotate [DIAL] to select either “TONE,” “TSQL” or “DTCS”
to be scanned, then push [TONE](M/CALL) again.
r Push and hold [SCAN](VFO/MHz) to enter scan selection
state.
• To change the scanning direction, rotate [DIAL].
t Rotate [DIAL] to select “TONE,” then push [SCAN](VFO/
MHz) again to start the tone scan.

y When the CTCSS tone frequency or 3-digit DTCS code
is matched, the squelch opens and the tone frequency is
temporarily programmed into the selected feature, such as
memory or call channel.
• The tone scan pauses when a CTCSS tone frequency or 3-digit
DTCS code is detected.
• The decoded CTCSS tone frequency or 3-digit DTCS code is
used for the tone encoder or tone encoder/decoder, depending
on the selected tone condition or type in step e.
-“TONE” : Tone encoder for repeater operation
-“TSQL” : CTCSS tone encoder/decoder
-“DTCS” : DTCS tone encoder/decoder
u Push [SCAN](VFO/MHz) to stop the scan.
T-SCAN
z Set the frequency or memory channel to be
checked for a tone frequency.
x Selects the tone type to be scanned.
• Push [FUNC] then push; [SIMP 9(TSQL)] for tone
squelch; [HIGH 4(DTCS)] for DTCS squelch.
c Push [FUNC] then [SCAN 2(T-SCAN)] to start
the tone scan.
v When the tone frequency is matched, the
squelch opens and the tone frequency is pro-
grammed into the selected mode, such as
memory or call channel.
b Push [
CLR A(MW)] to stop the scan.
NOTE: The decoded tone frequency is programmed tem-
porarily when a memory or call channel is selected. How-
ever, this will be cleared when the memory/call channel is
re-selected.
