Introduction

Nothing comes close to a Cobra

®

Your microTALK

®

radio incorporates two advanced coded squelch

systems that can help to reduce interference from other users 
on any given channel. CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch
System) provides 38 privacy codes and DCS (Digitally Coded
Squelch) provides 83 privacy codes. Either system can be used 
on all channels, but both systems cannot be used on the same
channel at the same time.

If you are using a privacy code, both radios must be tuned 
to the same channel and privacy code to communicate. Each
channel will remember the last privacy code you selected.

1. After selecting a channel, press the 

Lock/Mode button until the CTCSS icon
appears and the small numbers flash 
on the display (01 through 38).

If DCS is turned on at the channel
selected, the display will flash the 
CTCSS icon and 

off. To switch from 

DCS to CTCSS, press the 

Up or Down

button while the display is flashing 
off. You will then be able to proceed
from step 1.

2. Press using the Channel Up or Channel Down

button to select a privacy code. You can hold
the Up or Down button for fast advance.

3. When your desired privacy code is displayed,

choose one of the following:

a. Press the Lock/Mode button to enter the

new setting and proceed to other functions.

b. Press the Hi•Low/Enter button to enter the

new setting and return to Standby mode.

to enter the new setting and return to
