5. If you turn the squelch
control fully
anticlockwise, it lowers
the “squelch gate” so low
that everything gets
through
- noise,
weak
signals
and
strong
signals.
6. To set the “squelch gate”
to the DSS (Desired
Squelch Setting), turn the
squelch control
anticlockwise until you
hear noise. Then turn the
squelch control back
clockwise until the noise
just stops. N ow only
signals as
strong as
or stronger
than the
g a t e
setting can
p a s s
through the gate and be
h e a r d .
The Desired Squelch Setting, (DSS) only allows actual transmissions to
come through. This effectively blocks out unwanted noise.
