USING DTSS
1 Select the desired band.
2 Press [F], [DTSS] to switch the DTSS function ON.
• "DT" appears.
3 Select the appropriate DTSS code {page 50}.
4 When you are called:
The squelch of your transceiver opens only when the
stored DTSS code is received.
• If, after DTSS has opened the squelch, no signal is
received for more than 2 seconds, the squelch will close.
When you make a call:
Press and hold Mic [PTT] to transmit your DTSS code.
• Each time you press [PTT], the DTSS code is transmitted
for about 0.5 seconds. After establishing a contact, you
can eliminate this by switching the DTSS function OFF.
5 To switch the DTSS function OFF, repeat pressing [F],
[DTSS] twice.
Note:
◆ DTSS may not function in the following situations:
• The other station is using a battery saver function.
• A repeater ID and the DTSS code are received simultaneously.
If difficulty is experienced in these cases, press [MR] while in the
transmit mode. The DTSS code is re-transmitted.
◆ DTSS cannot be used with some repeaters.
◆ DTSS also may not function if buttons are pressed or the VOL control
is turned while a valid DTSS code is received.
◆ Both the DTSS status and a DTSS code can be stored in a memory
channel or the Call channel. Further, when recalling either a memory
channel or the Call channel with DTSS status ON while using the
VFO with Page switched ON, page is given priority and the DTSS
status switches OFF.
