FT-60R/E OPERATING MANUAL22
CTCSS OPERATION
Many repeater systems require that a very-low-frequency audio tone be superimposed on
your FM carrier in order to activate the repeater. This helps prevent false activation of the
repeater by radar or spurious signals from other transmitters. This tone system, called
“CTCSS” (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System), is included in your FT-60R/E, and
is very easy to activate.
CTCSS setup involves two actions: setting the Tone Mode and then setting of
the Tone Frequency. These actions are set up by using the [1(SQ TYP)] key
and [2(CODE)] key.
1. Press the
[
F/W
]
key, then press the
[
1
(
SQ TYP
)]
key to enable selection of the CTCSS/
DCS mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob so that “TONE” indication appears on the
display; this activates the CTCSS Encoder, for access to repeat-
ers requiring a CTCSS tone.
3. Rotation of the DIAL knob one more “click” in step “2” above will cause the “TSQL”
notation to appear. When “TSQL” is displayed, this means that the Tone SQueLch
system is active, which mutes your FT-60R/E’s receiver until it receives a call from
another radio sending out a matching CTCSS tone. This can
help keep your radio quiet until a specific call is received, which
may be helpful while operating in congested areas of the band.

You may notice a “REV TN” indication on the display while you rotate
the DIAL knob in this step; this means that the Reverse Tone Squelch
system is active, which mutes your FT-60R/E’s receiver (instead of open-
ing the squelch) when it receives a call from the radio sending a matched CTCSS
tone. The “TSQ” icon will blink on the display when the Reverse Tone Squelch
system is activated.

)
You may notice a “DCS” indication on the display while you rotate the DIAL
knob still more. We’ll discuss the Digital Code Squelch system shortly.
4. When you have made your selection of the CTCSS tone mode, press the PTT switch
to save the new setting.
5. Press the
[
F/W
]
key, then press the
[
2
(
CODE
)]
key to enable adjustment of
the CTCSS frequency.
6. Rotate the DIAL knob until the display
indicates the Tone Frequency you need
to be using (ask
the repeater
owner/operator if
you don’t know the tone frequency).
