Setting the volume
Setting the squelch level
The squelch feature reduces the level of static on the speaker by filtering out
the background channel noise. At the lowest squelch level, the speaker plays
all radio signals, including any noise on the channel. Setting the squelch
level higher filters out channel noise and lets only actual radio transmissions
through.
