Your microTALK radio incorporates two advanced coded squelch
systems that can help to reduce interference from other users
on any given channel. CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch
System) provides 38 privacy codes and DCS (Digitally Coded Squelch)
provides 83 privacy codes. This provides a total of 121 Privacy
Codes. Either system can be used on all channels, but both systems
cannot be used on the same channel at the same time.
If DCS is turned on at the channel selected,
the display will flash the CTCSS icon and
“OFF.” To switch from DCS to CTCSS,
press the Channel Up or Channel Down
button while the display is flashing “OFF.”
The display will then show the small
numbers flashing and you will then be able
to proceed to step 2.
2. Press using the Channel Up or Channel Down button to select a
privacy code. You can hold the Up or Down button for fast advance.
3. When your desired CTCSS privacy code is displayed, press the
Mode/Power button to enter the new setting and proceed to other
functions, or press Talk button to return to Standby mode.
To successfully communicate using a privacy code, both
the sending and receiving radios must be tuned to the same
channel and to the same privacy code system (CTCSS or DCS)
and privacy code number. Each channel will remember the last
privacy code system and number you select.
The privacy code 00 is not a privacy code, but allows all signals
to be heard on a channel that is set to 00 on both
the CTCSS and DCS systems.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Safety Information for microTALK Radios
Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter. When the talk button is
pushed, it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not
to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless devices.
Important
FCC RF Exposure Requirements: For body-worn operation, this radio has been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines when used with Cobra accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. Use only the supplied antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations.
Normal Position
Hold the transmitter approximately 2 inches from your face and speak in a normal voice, with the
antenna pointed up and away.
MODEL CXT1035:
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device must
accept any interference received,including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Warnings: Replacement or substitution of transistors, regular diodes or other parts
of a unique nature, with parts other than those recommended by Cobra may cause a
violation of the technical regulations of part 95 of the FCC rules, or violation of type
acceptance requirements of part 2 of the rules.
