7. Slowly turn SQUELCH to the
right until the background hiss
disappears.
Notes:
• Do not set SQUELCH too far
to the right, or you cannot
hear weak signals.
• To receive very weak signals,
turn SQUELCH to the left.
You hear noise between
transmissions, but you also
hear weak signals (those not
strong enough to completely
break through the squelch).
8. Adjust VOLUME again to a com-
fortable listening level.
TRANSMITTING
Note: We recommend you try receiv-
ing before you begin transmitting.
1. Rotate CHANNEL to select a
channel.
2. Hold the microphone about 3
inches from your mouth. Press
and hold the microphone's talk
button and speak in a normal
voice.
The TX POWER meter shows
the strength of the transmitting
signal.
The microphone automatically
adjusts its gain to provide the
best modulation. However,
speaking very loudly or very
softly can still cause unwanted
noise or distortion.
3. Release the talk button when
you finish speaking.
4. When you are finished, turn off
the power by pressing POWER
to the m position.
USING SPECIAL
CONTROLS
