Scan function

scanning for a few seconds, then it will start scanning again on the other
frequencies even though the signal is still present.
• CO – Carrier-Operated scan: whenever a signal is detected, the radio will
stop scanning and will resume only after the signal disappears.

Selective call
You may sometimes want to hear calls from only specific persons or groups.
In this case, use the selective call function. This transceiver is equipped with
CTCSS tones and DCS codes. These selective calls allow you to ignore (not
hear) unwanted calls from other persons who are using the same frequency.
The transceiver unmutes only when it receives the signal having the same
CTCSS tone or DCS code.
CTCSS and DCS do not make your conversation private or scrambled. It only
relieves you from listening to unwanted conversations.
