DJ160.3 The fifth digit is REWRITTEN whenever the radio receives a proper group or personal page code, and will display personal code number that was received. It is transmitted only when the radio is in GP DSQ mode. It is NOT transmitted when the radio is in DSQ or G DSQ modes. See below. To set the DSQ number, push [f] [DSQ set], enter five numbers, then push [V/M]. NOTE: In the examples that follow, I will assume you have programed the code 123.4.5 into your DSQ using the DSQ set function. (a) DSQ Squelch Operation: Receive Mode: DSQ squelch is used to cause the radio to be silent (squelched) while in receive until it receives a three digit code. IF it receives the correct three digits during the first second or two of a transmission, it will release the squelch and the receive the rest of that transmission. Transmit Mode: When used to transmit, the radio will automatically transmit the three digit DSQ group code right after you press the [PTT] button, so remember to pause a moment before talking if using the radio in DSQ mode. To set DSQ Squelch, push [f] [GP DSQ] until DSQ is displayed. Be sure that ONLY DSQ is displayed, not G DSQ or GP DSQ. Normally, if you start with no DSQ display, hitting [f] [GP DSQ] once will cause DSQ only to be displayed. Summary of DTMF Squelch function: Receive: Radio remains squelched unless it receives the tones 1,2,3 Transmit: Radio transmits the tones 1,2,3 whenever [PTT] is pressed. (you must hold down the PTT button throughout your transmission. If you let go of the PTT button, you must re-transmit the three digit code if you want the receiver to hear you! This is not a problem when using one DJ160 with another, but can be if you are using the DJ160 with a different radio where manual entry of the DTMF tones is required) NOTE: If using another radio to manually send DTMF squelch codes, the three digits must be punched in within a space of 1.5 seconds total. (b) DTMF page function: This mode is set using the [f] [GP DSQ] buttons. Hold down the [f] button and press the [GP DSQ] button until G DSQ or GP DSQ is displayed. G DSQ stands for group page mode, and GP DSQ stands for personal page mode. Normally if no DSQ function is displayed, you hold down the [f] key and press the [GP DSQ] key once to display DSQ, twice to display G DSQ, three times to display GP DSQ, and a fourth time to clear the DSQ function from the display.
