Note: To receive very weak sig-
nals, turn
SQUELCH
counterclock-
wise. You hear noise between
transmissions, but you also hear
weak transmissions (those not
strong enough to break through a
higher squelch setting).
9. When the transceiver receives a
signal, the
RX SIGNAL
indicators
light. If the received signal is dis-
torted, decrease the overall signal
level by rotating
RF GAIN
counter-
clockwise.
10. Set the noise reduction switch to
the proper setting to eliminate the
type of noise you are hearing.
NR
— to reduce background noise
TR
— to eliminate tones, hetero-
dynes, whistles, and whines
11. To turn off the CB, turn
VOLUME
counterclockwise until you hear it
click. The display and indicators
turn off.
TRANSMITTING
Note: We recommend you try receiv-
ing before you transmit.
1. Follow Steps 1–7 in “Receiving
Transmissions and Adjusting
Squelch.”
2. To transmit, press the talk button
on the microphone. Hold the mi-
crophone 2–3 inches from your
mouth and speak in a normal tone
of voice, then release the talk but-
ton. The
TX POWER
meter lights.
Notes:
• Usually, all four LEDs light. If
fewer than four light, you might
have a weak power source or
improper power or antenna
connections.
