Squelch
Squelch blocks
undesired signals and
noise by allowing the
reception of signals
only over a specified
level.
Press and release the SQ (+) or SQ (-) but-
tons to adjust the squelch to any level
between OPEN and CLOSED.
When squelch is set to OPEN, no filtering
occurs. Setting squelch to CLOSED blocks
all signals, including strong signals.
To set the squelch level, first lower the
squelch level until noise or static is audible.
Gradually increase the squelch level until
the noise or static is gone.
