 Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the T60 and the T65?

The T65 has 5 additional animal sounds.

What are CTCSS tones?

CTCSS (Continuous Tone-Coded Squelch System) is a low frequency sub-audible tone that is transmitted along with your voice when you speak into your radio. This tone, when decoded by another radio set with the same tone, will allow only that radio to receive your transmission. This feature is useful in noisy environments such as sporting events, construction sites or other noisy areas. It can also be used to limit the number of users who can communicate on a channel. For example, if you are at an event and have several friends there with radios, you could program a group of radios to use the same CTCSS tone so that only your group can communicate on that channel.

Is my Midland two-way radio waterproof?

No, your Midland two-way radio should not be exposed to water or moisture under any circumstances as this will damage it beyond repair . Do not use it while bathing, swimming or diving; do not use it near sinks or other wet locations; do not leave it outside during rainstorms; do not use it while working under wet conditions; do not use it while cleaning fish or other water activities; do not allow liquids or moisture to get inside the battery compartment; do not immerse the battery pack in water; do not operate if wet even if the unit appears dry; do not operate if dropped into water; do not operate if dropped into water even if
