3.Turn SQUELCH clockwise until the hissing sound stops.
Notes:
•If the scanner picks up unwanted, partial, or very weak transmissions, turn SQUELCH clockwise to decrease the scanner’s sensitivity to these signals. If you want to listen to a weak or distant station, turn SQUELCH counterclockwise.
•If SQUELCH is adjusted so you always hear a hissing sound, the scanner does not scan properly.
