Squelch Level Setting
The adjustable Squelch allows you to optimize the radio’s sensitivity. It also allows you to increase the sensitivity and receive weaker signals. There are 5 sensitivity levels. The squelch level is indicated by the icon and bar icons next to it on the display.
1.Press MON/FUNC until the current squelch level flashes and appears.
2.Press UP/DOWN to increase or decrease the squelch level.
3.Press PTT to set or MON/FUNC to continue set up.
Level 1 is the most sensitive level, which means the radio can receive a very weak signal. While at level 5, the radio can only receive stronger signals. In some cases the latter is preferable to prevent sensitivity to numerous strong signals in adjacent channels that might interfere (intermodulation). This can be especially true in the case of an environment with a high density of users.
