How Squelch Works

Think of “SQUELCH” as a gate. If the gate is too low (squelch
too low), everything (all noise as well as signals) gets through.

If the gate is set too high (squelch too high), nothing gets
through.

If the gate is set just right (squelch set properly), just the
desired signals get through.

Setting the Squelch

1.   To set the squelch, press 

HOLD/RESUME 

to stop

 

scanning.

2.   Turn 

SQL 

fully counterclockwise until hiss heard.

 

This lowers the “squelch gate,” allowing all signals and

 

noise to get through.

3.   Turn 

SQL 

fully clockwise just until hiss stops.

 

This raises the “squelch gate,” allowing only strong signals

 

to get through.
