No Tone Squelch -Is a generic name for many "Sub-audible tone systems". The principle is that a receiver will not allow any audio to be routed to the speaker unless it is accompanied by the appropriate sub-audible tone. (Also see: CTCSS, ETS & PL) CTCSS - "Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System" CTCSS is a series of sub-audible tones which are standard on most new radios. An audible cousin of CTCSS is DTMF. These tones often perform control functions. Some repeaters may require a sub-audible tone before activating, others use it to perform functions such as turning all trunks on and off when a specific tone is present. (Also see: Tone Squelch, ETS & PL) ETS - "Electronic Tone Squelch" is the Canadian Marconi Company version of tone squelch. ETS is a series of sub-audible tones which has the ability of performing control functions. (Also see, Tone Squelch, CTCSS & PL.) Do I need to point it out? Am I the only one that sees it? According to your first "definition" up there, Sub-Audible Tone System (SATS) = CTCSS = PL. In fact, all of my ICOM and Alinco manuals equate PL with CTCSS and define them with the same definition you attribute to SATS. Or were you confusing CTCSS with DTS? |
