the most sensitive.
If a headset is connected to the transceiver while the VOX
function is switched ON and the VOX Gain level is configured
to a higher, more sensitive level, louder received signals may
cause the transceiver to start transmission.

QT/ DQT SETTINGS
Quiet Talk (QT) and Digital Quiet Talk (DQT) are functions that
reject undesired signals on your channel. You will hear a call
only when you receive a signal that contains a matching QT
tone or DQT code. If a call containing a different tone or code
is received, squelch will not open and you will not hear the call.
Likewise, when transmitting using QT or DQT, the receiving
station must have a matching tone or code to hear your call.
Be aware that other parties can still hear your calls if they set
up their transceiver with the same tone or code.
To change the QT/DQT settings of a channel:
1 With the transceiver power OFF, press and hold the PTT
switch and Side 1 key while turning the transceiver power
ON.
•
Continue to hold the PTT switch and Side 1 key until the LED
lights orange and the transceiver announces “Self”.
2 Release the PTT switch and Side 1 key.
•
The transceiver announces “Channel”.
•
Pressing the Side 1 key or Side 2 key will toggle between QT,
DQT, and Channel setup.
3 Press the Side 1 or Side 2 key to select QT or DQT setup.
•
The transceiver announces “QT” or “DQT”, depending on your
selection.
4 Press and release the PTT switch, then rotate the Channel
selector to your desired channel.
•
Upon releasing the PTT switch, the transceiver announces “QT
One” or “DQT One”, depending on your selection.
5 Press the Side 1 or Side 2 key to increment/ decrement the
Tone number, to select the new tone or code.
•
•
•
Tone numbers and their corresponding tones/ codes are
provided in the table on pages ꢀ7 and ꢀ8.
Press and hold the Side 1 or Side 2 key to increment/
decrement the QT or DQT number by 5 at a time.
