DIGITAL MODE OPERATION
The digital code (CSQL) or call sign (DSQL) squelch opens
only when receiving a voice signal with the same pre-pro-
grammed digital code or call sign, respectively. The digital
code or call sign squelch does not function while in a slow
data communication.
q Set the operating frequency.
w Program the digital code or call sign in setting mode.
See p. 69, “Digital code setting” or pgs. 59, 60 “Call sign programming.”
e Push [TONE ] several times until “ ” or “ ” ap-
pears in the function display.
•“ ” for digital code squelch; “ ” for call sign squelch operation.
r When a signal with the matched digital code/call sign is re-
ceived, the squelch opens and the signal can be heard.
When the received signal includes an unmatched digital
code/call sign, the squelch does not open. However, the S/RF
indicator shows the received signal strength.
•To open the squelch manually, rotate [SQL] counter clockwise.
t Operate the transceiver in the normal way (push [PTT] to
transmit; release [PTT] to receive).
y To cancel the digital code/call sign squelch, push [TONE
] several times until “ ” or “ ” disappears.
NOTE: While in the digital mode operation, the monitor
function (pushing [MONI ]) works as the analog mon-
itor for receiving an FM signal. The digital monitor function
is activate using the Squelch control knob [SQL].
z Set the operating frequency.
x
Program the digital code or call sign in setting mode.
See p. 69, “Digital code setting” or pgs. 59, 60 “Call
sign programming.”
c
Push [FUNC] then [
SIMP
9(TSQL)] or [
HIGH
4(DTCS)]
to turn the digital code or call sign squelch ON.
v When a signal with the matched digital code or
call sign is received, the squelch opens and the
signal can be heard.
When the received signal includes an unmatched digital
code or call sign, the squelch does not open. However,
the S/RF indicator shows the received signal strength.
•To open the squelch manually, push [

several times until less than squelch level 7.
b Operate the transceiver in the normal way (push
[PTT] to transmit; release [PTT] to receive.

While scanning in digital mode:
The call sign squelch function deactivate, then after can-

Scan stops near channel in a 5 kHz tuning steps, and then
no sound comes out.
