n Operation
By  default,  the  transceiver  uses  a CTCSS/DTCS  squelch 
system. The CTCSS tone squelch. DTCS opens only when 
receiving a signal containing a matching tone. You can silently 
wait for calls from group members using the same tone.
ï CTCSS tone setting
The transceiver is equipped with 50 CTCSS tones. CTCSS 
operation provides communication with silent standby since 
you will only  receive  calls  from group  members  using the 
same CTCSS tone frequency.
