AM/FM
(short press)
This switch allows
selecting
the modulation mode AM, FM; Your modulation
mode has to correspond to the one of your correspondent.
Amplitude Modulation / AM: communication on a field with relief and
-
obstacles at middle distance (the most used).
-
Frequency Modulation / FM: for nearby communications on a flat open
field.
In U configuration only: in FM mode, a short press on the F key (9)
between the ENG or CEPT frequency bands. "UK" is displayed when the
ENG frequency band is selected (see table on page 70).

CTCSS/DCS
For simplicity, in this manual we will speak of CTCSS/DCS code to indicate
both a CTCSS tone and a DCS code, of GENRE to indicate the kind of code
(CTCSS, DCS or OFF = no code). TYPE indicates whether this is a TX transmis-
sion or an RX reception and MODE specifies the operating mode, Identical
I d or different DF.

Activation
If a CTCSS/DCS code has been stored, it becomes active, "CTCSS" or "DCS"
icon is displayed on the screen.
In MODE I d, if no CTCSS/DCS code has been stored, the device emits an
error beep. Go to the CODE SET menu to store a CTCSS/DCS code.
In DF MODE, if no CTCSS/DCS code has been stored in either TYPE TX or TYPE
RX, the device emits an error beep. Go to the CODE SET menu to store the
CTCSS/DCS codes.
Deactivation
If a CTCSS/DCS code has been stored and "CTCSS" or "DCS" is displayed on
the screen, a short press on the AM/FM key (4) after F key (9) deactivates
the stored cde, "CTCSS" or "DCS" disappears, a deactivation beep sounds.
The memorized CTCSS/DCS code is kept in memory but no longer functions.
