To successfully communicate using a privacy code, both
the sending and receiving radios must be tuned to the same
channel and to the same privacy code system (CTCSS or DCS)
and privacy code number. Each channel will remember the last
privacy code system and number you select.
The privacy code 00 is not a privacy code, but allows all signals
to be heard on a channel that is set to 00 on both the CTCSS and
DCS systems.
To select a CTCSS privacy code:
1. After selecting a channel, press the Menu/Power
button until the CTCSS icon appears and the small
numbers next to the channel number flash on the
display.
2. Press using the Up or Down button to select
a privacy code. You can hold the Up or Down
button for fast advance.
3. When your desired CTCSS privacy code is
displayed, choose one of the following:
a. Press the Menu/Power button to enter the
new setting and proceed to other functions.
b. Press PTT button to enter the new setting and
return to Standby mode.
