Hearing faint and noisy
signals
This feature is only applicable to analog channels.
Usually the radio’s squelch mute (known as ‘squelch’)
prevents you from hearing faint or noisy calls on a
channel. Without squelch, the radio’s speaker would
‘chatter’ in low signal strength areas.
On occasions when you want to hear everything that
is being said on a channel, even if it is hard to
understand, you can use the squelch override feature
to force the mute open.
