CTCSS/DCS tone setting
CTCSS and DCS tones are similar to access codes and enable the radio to
communicate only with the users that are tuned on the same channel and have
set the same code. For each channel, you can set up to 38 CTCSS and 104
DCS tones.
These tones can be set on the following channels:
• On the 8 main PMR446 channels (from P1 to P8) and on the 69 LPD
channels.
The pre-set channels from 9p to 24p and from 17p to 32p cannot be modified.
