Tone scan
By monitoring a signal that is being operated with repeater, pocket

r When the CTCSS tone frequency or DTCS code is matched, the
squelch opens and the tone frequency or code is temporarily
programmed into the selected mode 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 w.
- No indication : Cannot be used for operation.
