Tone Search Scanning
In operating situations where you don’t know the CTCSS
tone being used by another station, you can command the
radio to listen to the incoming signal and scan in search of
the tone being used. To scan for the CTCSS tone in use:
1. Press the
[

key momentarily, then rotate the MEM/
VFO CH knob, as needed, until Multi Function Row
“e”

[

key to activate CTCSS Encoder/De-
coder; (the “TSQ” icon will appear on the display)
3. Press the
[

)
key to start scanning for the in-
coming CTCSS tone.
4. When the radio detects the cor-
rect tone, it will halt on that tone,
and audio will be allowed to pass
5. The CTCSS tone detected will be
stored as the “current” tone, so it may be used for memory
storage purposes, and you may now exit to normal op-
eration.
you press the

key repeatedly, you will ob-
serve “TSQ” (CTCSS Encode/Decode), “DEN” (Digi-

ture automatically activates the appropriate repeater shift
when you are operating inside the designated 144 MHz
or 430 MHz FM repeater sub-bands in your country. If
