2.3 Squelch control
Squelch is used to mute the speaker noise when no signal is being received.
Squelch level can be selected between S00~S32. Setting is made as follows.
A squelch level can be selected from the range between S00 and S32.
To select a squelch level, press the
SQL key located on the left side of the
body, and then press the UP/DOWN
key or turn the dial. The squelch level
will be shown on the display in
accordance with the setting.
Note: • Higher squelch levels require higher signal levels to release the muting.
Set the squelch to a level at which the noise just disappears.
• The level at which to release the muting varies depending on the received
frequency even if the electric field strength remains the same. Adjust the
squelch at the most suitable level for the frequency to be received.
• If the squelch level is too high, weak incoming signals may not be heard
from the speaker.
2.4 Setting frequency
Frequency can be set in any of four ways: By using the numeric keys, the
UP/DOWN key, the dial, or the combination of the
key and the dial.
