Setting a Group Code
By programming a Group code, you can simultaneously
pass information to a number of stations. You may
program an alphabetic character, such as “A", as one of
the digits in your transceiver’s Group code. In the
following example, if you sent “12A", or “1 A3”, or “A23”,
the squelch would open on transceivers that are
programmed with the following DTMF codes
respectively:
12A: 120, 121,122, 123, 124................ 129
1A3: 103, 113, 123, 133, 143, . . . . 193
A23: 023, 123, 223, 323, 423, . . . . 923
You can also program a Group code that includes two
or three identical alphabetic characters such as “3AA”.
In this example, the squelch would open on transceivers
that are programmed as follows:
300, 301,302, 303, 304, 305________ 309
310, 311,312, 313, 314, 315,_______ 319

Turn the Tuning control, or press microphone
[UP]/[DWN] to select A, B, C, D, E, or F.
Press [F] or microphone [PTT] to exit Menu B.
Store a Group code that includes the digit selected
in Step 4, using one of the methods described in the
preceding sections.
390, 391,392, 393, 394, 395, 399
You may be called by other transceivers that have
DTMF functions and can send a Group code. Let us
assume that you program “333” and select “A” (DT.G,
Menu B). In this example, the squelch on your
transceiver would open when the following DTMF codes
are received:
333, A33, 3A3, 33A, 3AA, AA3, A3A, AAA
