TC-780 2 Tone Paging

[John31]

I am trying to program several HYT TC-780 radios. I was told by the dealer that I purchased the radios from that the radios are capable of having a 2 tone pager that is closed (will not broadcast audio until a call is received) however I have not been able to find out how to program this. Any suggestions?

The only paging i was able to setup was two tone page sending..... i haven't figured out how to have it act as a pager yet. Ill look later and try tinkering and see if i can figure it out again

Okay, looking at the software, it looks like you have to enable it in the personality tab, signaling personality, and selected two tone for RX Optional Signaling. However, when you do that, it appears its only going to decode the two-tone rather than any HDC/MDC1200 signaling (if your using that).

Now for your muting, I think you need to use the Squelch personality tab, and for RX Squelch, instead of using CTCSS/CDCSS, make it "Optional Signaling" or "CTCSS/CTCSS and Optional Signaling". I haven't tried it because I really have no need for it, but it would seem logical for that to be the case.
