7.1.6 Squelch
Squelch level can be adjusted using the and buttons.
Operating the buttons will contribute to the global squelch setting on the radio. Squelch
indicators on the handset CU and on the main unit will always follow each other regardless of
the control input used for adjustment.
NOTE: If a channel is reached where the squelch setting was programmed from the main
unit, squelch control will set the level for that particular channel, but will not reset the squelch
programming as would be the case if adjusted from the main unit.
7.1.7 Dimming
Dimming the control unit display and keypad backlight and 1W LED is done exactly as
described for the VHF, but with no graphical information.
7.1.8 Muting Alarms
If a DSC call is received (distress or routine) the alarm tone is heard as a mixing of the
received voice audio in the speakers and earpieces in the system. Pushing the
button will mute any alarm sound, and only received voice is heard in the speakers.
Normal radiotelephony calls can be acknowledged from the semi-intelligent handset making
the HS hooked to HS un-hooked transition.
7.1.8 Transmitter Power
Pushing the 1W button will have the same effect as described for VHF. 1W LED on CU will
follow the 1W LED on main unit.

button is pressed.
The navigator counter (seconds back in received signal) is shown on the CU display.
