This is different from scanning because you are 
searching for frequencies that have not been 
programmed into the scanner. When you select 
frequency bands to search, the scanner searches for 
any active frequency within the lower and upper limits 
you specify. When the scanner finds an active 
frequency, it stops on that frequency as long as the 
transmission lasts. If you think the frequency is 
interesting, you can program it into the scanner’s 
memory. If not, you can continue to search.
What is CTCSS/DCS?
Your scanner can monitor systems using a Continuous 
Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) and Digital 
Coded Squelch (DCS) system, which allow squelch to 
open only when the tone you have programmed with a 
specific frequency is received along with a 
transmission. 
CTCSS and DCS are subaudible tone signaling
systems sometimes referred to as PL or DPL 
(Motorola’s trademarked terms for Private Line and 
Digital Private Line respectively). CTCSS and DCS 
are used only for FM signals and are usually 
associated with both amateur and commercial two-
way frequencies. These systems make use of a 
special subaudible tone that accompanies a 
transmitted signal.
CTCSS and DCS are used for many purposes. In 
many cases, CTCSS and DCS are used to restrict 
access to a commercial repeater, so that only those 
units which transmit the correct tone along with their 
signal can “talk” to the repeater.
CTCSS and DCS are also used in areas that receive 
interference where there are several stations with 
output frequencies close to each other. When this 
occurs, you might hear multiple communications on 
the same frequency. The stations might even interfere
