TOT
This feature provides a safety switch which limits transmission time to a programmed
value. This will promote battery conservation by not allowing you to make excessively-long
transmissions, and in the event of a stuck PTT switch (perhaps if the radio or a
Speaker/Mic is wedged between car seats) it can prevent interference to other users as
well as battery depletion.
15[0] - 600[39] in 15 second steps (set TOT

The red TX LED begins to flash 10 seconds before the timeout limit
is reached

R-DCS
Mutes the speaker of the transceiver in the absence of a specific low level digital signal. If
the station you are listening to does not transmit this specific signal, you will not hear
anything.
When R-DCS is not set to OFF, 'DCS' is indicated to the left of the
upper channel display
11
R-CTCS
Mutes the speaker of the transceiver in the absence of a specific and continuous sub-
audible signal. If the station you are listening to does not transmit this specific and
continuous signal, you will not hear anything.
When R-CTCS is not set to OFF, 'CT' is indicated to the left of the
upper channel display
(R-CTCS ≤ 131.8 Hz) Scanning never stops regardless of the correct
CTCSS tone being received
(R-CTCS ≥ 141.3 Hz) Scanning stops regardless of the actual
CTCSS tone being received
12
T-DCS
Transmits a specific low level digital signal to unlock the squelch of a distant receiver
(usually a repeater).
When T-DCS is not set to OFF, 'DCS' is indicated to the left of the
upper channel display (requires TX or 'reverse' mode)
13
T-CTCS
Transmits a specific and continuous sub-audible signal to unlock the squelch of a distant
receiver (usually a repeater).
When T-CTCS is not set to OFF, 'CT' is indicated to the left of the
upper channel display (requires TX or 'reverse' mode)
