The CTCSS deviation is directly tied to the transmit channel element IDC Control. If you set the CTCSS Deviation to the desired narrow band value the peak IDC setting should be very close* to the desired/target value. However, I don't depend on the IDC Circuit to hard limit my TX Deviation. *The exception to the above is that I (and most everyone else from what I see actually on the air) also don't use/set standard CTCSS or LTR Data Deviation values/levels. > As for the receiver, you will need filters that are more > narrow; other wise you will get adjacent channel intererence.
