Setting the Channel and Squelch Code

The Rino 110 has a total of 22 channels and 38 squelch

codes to select from using the Channel and Code

fields. Channels 1–14 are FRS channels and 15–22 are

GMRS channels (disabled by default in U.S. units). To

communicate with other Rino and FRS/GMRS users, you

must be on the same channel and squelch code. Garmin

Rino units work with 3rd party FRS/GMRS radios,

provided the other radios use standard FRS/GMRS

frequencies. A chart of Rino frequencies can be found in

the “Appendix.”
Squelch codes allow you to hear calls from only specific

persons. Thirty-eight (38) Squelch Codes (also called

Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System or CTCSS)

allow your Rino 110 to ignore unwanted calls from other

persons using the same channel. Be sure everyone you

will communicate with using your Rino has selected the

same squelch code (number).

Select from FRS 1–14 and GMRS

15–22 (with GMRS enabled)

NOTE: Squelch codes do not cause your conversa-

tion to be private. They only allow you to filter out

other users on the same channel, so you only hear

the radios you want to hear. Squelch Codes are not a

scrambling system!
