Yaesu FTM-400XDR. I know some repeaters need a tone in order to listen to you. Also, you can set a tone so you only hear signals with that tone. But while reading the Yaesu manual, I'm confused about how to set these.
Here are the menu items I assume one should use:
for DISP/SETUP hold
SIGNALING
1 TONE SQL FREQ (set tone freq) (CTCSS Continuous Tone-coded Squelch System)
67.0 Hz to 254.1 Hz
2 DCS CODE
set Digital Coded Squelch; from 023 to 754
6 PRG REV TONE (user programmed reverse CTCSS tone)
300 to 1500 to 3000 Hz
for F/MW
SQL nnn = set tone squelch type
NOISE, T-TX,
T-TRX, T-REV, D-TRX, PRGM, PAGER, D-TX, TT/DR, DT/TR
Are there others? How do all these interact? Which should I use for the functions I described at the top? Thanks so much.
