Using Baofeng Tone Scan

Ғылым және технология

Not sure what the PL tone (CTCSS) is for a repeater? Just use the tone scanning feature to find it and you are ready to program any new repeater you come across.

    A great feature in this radio that I use when traveling... I do a scan of frequencies until I get activity, then if I know it is more than likely a repeater, determine what the CTCSS is for the repeater with this quick scan as well.

    I’ve been struggling to figure out why my FRS radio wouldn’t receive anything from any other radio, even though it would send just fine. With this I figured out why. Now I can list the channels and their related CTCSS frequencies. Granted you’re not supposed to use a ham radio on FRS, but it allows me to use all my radios together in an emergency. Thanks!

    KZread says someone replied, but I can’t see it, so here it is. Set to active frequency. Press “Menu” Go to option 11, “R-CTCS”(s) Press “Menu” Press “^” key to start at the lowest CTCSS frequency Press “Menu” to select that frequency and turn R-CTCSS on. You MUST do this before it will scan. If you do not see “CT” on the left, CTCSS is off and will not scan despite being in the CTCSS frequency selection. With CTCSS now on; Press Menu to renter CTCSS frequency selection. Press “*/SCAN” Wait for transmission on active frequency and allow the radio to scan for R-CTCSS. It sounds rather complicated typed out, but in practice it’s much simpler. Hope this helped!

    Try these steps in Frequency Mode while monitoring the repeater receive frequency. Once you select R-CTCSS move to an arbitrary value, confirm and reselect R-CTCSS. You have to press the SCAN button while in the R-CTCSS tone selection menu and at that point you should see the flashing CT if your model has the Tone Scan function.

    He’s turning on R-CTCSS by selecting the lowest frequency, then going back to the frequency selection and pressing “SCAN”. Then when the radio receives a transmission (which he demonstrates using the other radio) it will automatically scan for the receiving CTCSS frequency till it finds it or the transmission stops. When the transmission continues, it will continue scanning.
