PRIORITY BUTTON (Instant Priority)

Background noise or static is present to some degree at 

every location. This is a normal condition. If you set the squelch 

above the background noise level, the radio will remain silent 

until a voice transmission is detected. It is best to set the squelch 

as low as possible (to just before static is constant). This way you 

can hear signals that may be weak. If you set the squelch too high, 

you may miss some weak voice transmissions.

To adjust the squelch level, press the Squelch button until 

SQUELCH flashes on the display. Then rotate the Tuning Control 

Knob slowly clockwise from OFF through 12 (increasing squelch) 

until the radio just becomes silent. When the level control for the 

squelch threshold is set, only signals above the Squelch threshold 

will be stopped.
