TIP:
The new PCR1500 has tone squelch, but nowhere does the manual tell you that it
also decodes the squelch and reads out the DCS or CTCSS (PL) tone code. Here's
how you do it:
Put the scanner into tone scan (TSQL) mode and start the scan. When it stops
on a signal, the squelch tone numbers begin to scroll, gradually slowing down,
stopping for about 3 seconds to display the tone code before it starts
scrolling again.
