Setting the Manual Squelch
Turn the rotary of the SQ control at the base to adjust the Squelch.
NOTE
You must select a channel which is not in use before setting the
SQUELCH control. (see p.16 for “Selecting a Channel”).
Think of the squelch con-
trol as a gate. If you turn
Squelch fully clockwise it
raises the‘Squelch gate’
so high that no signals get
through.
If you turn Squelch fully
counter clockwise it low-
ers the ‘Squelch gate’
so low that noise gets
through.
To set the ‘Squelch Gate’
to the desired level,
turn the squelch knob
counterclockwise until you
hear noise. Then care-
fully turn the Squelch knob
clockwise until the noise
fades. Now only strong
signals get through.
Monitor
Press and hold
[DUAL/MON]
at the base to open the
squelch and receive all weak signals. Press and hold
[DUAL/MON]
at the base to cancel.
