KX3 and K3 FM, CTCSS, Deviation Questions

[J]

I had a few questions regarding the KX3 and K3:

 

.         These radios will transmit a CTCSS ("PL") tone to access
repeaters.  Can they also be programmed by the user to DECODE
(tone-squelched receive) CTCSS, PL or DPL tones?

.         A part of the first question...Can PL encode, or, PL encode-decode
be set up on individual FM channel memories?

.         I have a requirement to set up FM channel memories for Amateur
"standard" 5KHz deviation, while setting other FM channel memories for 2.5
KHz "narrowband" deviation.  Is this possible without having to re-program
FM dev each time I move from a wideband to a narrowband channel memory?

.         Does the PL or CTCSS menu also include digital PL (DPL) transmit
and receive access codes, and, non-standard CTCSS codes?

 

Thanks & 73

K3 and KX3 encode, but do not at this time decode, CTCSS tones.

DCS is not currently supported in transmit or receive.

Deviation is a single, global setting and is not presently stored in
channel memory.

The tone table for CTCSS currently has 50 tones, ranging from 67.0 Hz
through 254.4 Hz,  plus 1750 Hz for tone-burst access.

Sorry, I meant 254.1 Hz, not 254.4 Hz.
