The squelch
[B]
is used to eliminate received background noise in the absence of an incom-
ing signal. For maximum receiver sensitivity, the control should be adjusted only to the point
where the receiver background on ambient background noise is eliminated. The incoming
signals that are then received will be stronger than the background noise.

This button, when used in conjunction with the buttons on the front panel, allows access to

However, if you do not press the
"F"
button, these digits indicate current transmitting/receiv-
ing channel number.
