Must I reveal all of my repeaters CTCSS, DCS or other control tones or methods for publication in the GMRS National Repeater Guide?

No. You should tell us which ones you want listed (and for what purposes or with what restrictions), and which specific other ones not to publish. In some areas, PRSG has information about the CTCSS or DCS codes in general use, although we have not been told which codes are in use by particular repeaters. If there are certain codes that you do not want published, we need to know the specific codes (attributed to specific repeaters) not to publish. PRSG recommends that the CTCSS tone code 4A (141.3 Hz) should be used for traveler assistance and emergency communications. If your repeater has a multiple-tone capability, and if code 4A is not already in use on your channel in your immediate operating area, we recommend that you enable code 4A specifically for this purpose. If code 4A is already in use through another repeater with overlapping coverage of your station, you must cooperate with the licensee and users of that other station.
