SQUELCH ADJUST

In the conventional mode of operation, the squelch may be re-adjusted in the MENU selection mode or from a front panel key on the keypad that has been pre-programmed by the PC progamming software. A default value of 9 or any user level between 1 and 16 can be selected by the PC programming software. The user can change this setting either of two ways from the front panel keys.
