feature, “BUSY” is displayed, a busy tone sounds, and 
the transmitter is disabled.
The Busy Channel Lockout feature can be 
programmed to operate as follows. Each conventional 
channel can be programmed differently.
Off - Busy channel lockout is disabled and the trans-
mitter keys even if the channel is busy.
Noise - If a carrier is detected on the channel, the 
transmitter is disabled when the PTT switch is pressed.
Tone (NAC) - If an incorrect Call Guard (CTCSS/
DCS) or NAC code (see Section 5.17) is detected, the 
transmitter is disabled when the PTT switch is pressed. 
An incorrect code is any code other than the one 
programmed for the current channel.
If Busy Channel Override is permitted by 
programming, it is possible to transmit even when the 
transmitter is disabled by this feature. Simply release 
the PTT switch and then quickly press it again.
5.5 CALL GUARD SQUELCH
5.5.1  INTRODUCTION
Tone or digital Call Guard squelch (also called 
CTCSS/DCS signaling) can be programmed on each 
conventional analog transmit and receive channel in 
any order desired. The reverse burst and turn-off code 
are always transmitted and also detected on channels 
programmed with Call Guard squelch. 
The Call Guard squelch feature eliminates 
distracting messages intended for others using the 
channel. This is done by using a subaudible tone or 
digital code to control the squelch. This tone or code is 
unique to a user or a group on that channel. This tone 
or code is transmitted with the voice signal but is not 
heard because it is in the subaudible range and is atten-
uated by a filter. Call Guard squelch must be used in 
both the transmitting and receiving radio to be func-
tional. 
5.5.2  CALL GUARD SQUELCH ENABLE/
DISABLE
The Normal/Selective option switch or menu 
parameter (if programmed) can be used to disable 
receive Call Guard squelch on analog channels or 
group ID code detection on P25 channels. When selec-
tive squelch is disabled, “Sq Normal” is flashed in the 
display, and when it is enabled, “Sq Select” is flashed. 
When “Normal” is selected, the receiver 
unsquelches only if a carrier is detected. Scanning and 
Project 25 NAC detection are not disabled with this 
mode selected. The selected mode is in effect until it is 
manually changed again. Selecting another channel or 
cycling power does not reselect a default condition. 
There is a programmable option to display the monitor 
 icon when the “Normal” mode is selected. 
5.5.3  TONE CALL GUARD SQUELCH
Tone-type Call Guard squelch utilizes subaudible 
CTCSS tones from 67-254.1 Hz. Although there are 42 
tones assigned, those above 33 (210.7 Hz) are normally 
not used because of their close proximity to the voice 
band which starts at 300 Hz. In addition, tones 11 (97.4 
Hz), 39 (69.3 Hz), 40 (206.5 Hz), 41 229.1 Hz), and 42 
(254.1 Hz) are normally not used because they may 
cause interference with adjacent tones.
A reverse burst is transmitted when the push-to-
talk switch is released and also detected when calls are 
received. It is a 180-degree phase reversal for a period 
of time determined by the tone frequency, and it elimi-
nates the squelch tail (noise burst) in the receiving 
radio. Both the transmitting and receiving radio must 
be equipped with this feature for it to be utilized. 
5.5.4  DIGITAL CALL GUARD SQUELCH
Digital Call Guard squelch (DCS) uses digital 
data instead of subaudible tones to control the squelch. 
This data consists of continuous repetitions of 23-bit 
words. No bit or word synchronization information is 
used. When the push-to-talk switch is released, a turn-
off code is transmitted which eliminates the squelch 
tail similar to the reverse burst. 
Although there are thousands of possible code 
combinations with 23 bits, only 83 are unique with the 
data scheme used. The number specified when the 
code is programmed is actually a seed for a special 
algorithm used to generate the 23-bit data word. The 
data is transmitted at a rate of 134.4 bits per second. 
Therefore, approximately six words are transmitted 
each second. When the data is decoded, 23-bit samples
