Quiet Talk (Qt)/ Digital Quiet Talk (Dqt); Operator Selectable Tone (Ost) - Kenwood TK-7480 Mode D'emploi

QUIET TALK (QT)/ DIGITAL QUIET TALK (DQT)

Your dealer may have programmed QT or DQT signaling on your transceiver
channels. A QT tone/ DQT code is a sub-audible tone/code which allows you to
ignore (not hear) calls from other parties who are using the same channel.
When a channel is set up with a QT tone or DQT code, squelch will open only
when a call containing a matching tone or code is received. Likewise, signals that
you transmit will be heard only by parties whose QT/ DQT signaling matches your
transceiver.
If a call containing a different tone or code is made on the same channel you are
using, squelch will not open and you will not hear the call. Although it may seem
like you have your own private channel while using QT/ DQT, other parties can
still hear your calls if they set up their transceiver with the same tone or code.
