If there are many walkie talkie users in your neighborhood, there is a chance that some of these users are operating on the same channel. To prevent that you receive unknown signals from other users, sub-channels will be needed. Two radio's will only be able to communicate with each other not only operating on the same channel but also the same sub-channel. There are two kind of sub-channels :

Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) When using CTCSS, a low frequency tone (between 67 and 250 Hz) will be transmitted along with the voice signal. There are 38 available tones to choose from. You are free to choose one of these 38 available tones. Due to filtering, these tones will generally not be audible so they will not disturb the communication. 7.CTCSS Press the PTT-button(14) twice : The current CTCSS code flashes on the display.

The device operates on GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) frequencies, which require an FCC (Federal Communications Commission) license. You must be licensed prior to transmitting on all channels, which comprise of GMRS channels. Serious penalties could result for unlicensed use of GMRS channels, in violation of FCC rules, as stipulated in the Communications Act's Sections 501 and 502 (amended). You will be issued a call sign by the FCC, which should be used for station identification when operating the radio on GMRS channels. You should also cooperate by engaging in permissible transmissions only, avoiding channel interference with other GMRS users, and being prudent with the length of their transmission time. To obtain a license or ask questions about the license application, contact the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC or go to the FCC's website:
