ume of the connected horn speaker.

To turn the transceiver on, press and hold this knob until the radio turns on.

channel. Clockwise rotation of this knob increases the internal and speaker

SQL Knob
(Squelch Control)

the channel does not activate the audio circuits but a received signal does.
This point is called the squelch threshold. Further adjustment of the squelch
control will degrade reception of wanted transmissions.
