Power/Volume
switch.
To turn
the power on, rotate the knob clockwise.
Further
rotation
will
increase the sound output
from
the speaker.
To turn the power
off, rotate the knob counterclockwise
until the click is heard indicating
the power is turned off from
the power supply.
Squelch Control.
This
control
is used to
eliminate
annoying
background
noise at no
signal.
To adjust
the squelch
control
properly,
first
turn
the knob
counterclockwise
until
background
noise is heard.
Then,
rotate the
knob
slowly
clockwise
until
the
background
noise just
disappears.
At
this
point,
the receiver will
be relatively
quiet
under
no signal
conditions,
but
an incoming
signal will
overcome the squelch action
and be heard.
Since this control
is variable, it can be used to provide
varying
degrees of sensitivity
to incoming
signals.
As the control
is
advanced
from
the
extreme
counterclockwise
position
the squelch
action
is progressively
increased and stronger
signa Is are needed to
overcome
it.
To receive extremely
weak signals or to
disable the
squelch circuit,
simply turn the control
fully
counterclockwise.
Fine Tuning.
This will
be used for clear reception
of stations that
are slightly
off
frequency.
Rotate the knob for clearer reception.
AN L (Automatic
Noise Limiter)
Switch.
This switch,
when placed in ON position,
reduces undesirable noises.
Place the switch
in ON position
when the unit is used in noisy areas.
