Hi Jerry,

If the other radio uses selective squelch in the form of a CTCSS tone
or DCS code, then your radio must transmit the matching tone/code or
the other radio will ignore your radio's transmissions. That is how
selective squelch works.

Your options are...

1 disable selective squelch on the other radios
2 programming the matching CTCSS tone/DCS code on the BF-F8HP.
