TURNING ON THE CB AND RECEIVING TRANSMISSIONS
1.Turn SQUELCH fully counterclock- wise.
2.To turn on the CB, turn VOLUME clockwise until it clicks and you hear a hissing sound. The CB dis- plays the last selected channel.
3.To tune to a specific channel, ro- tate CHANNEL clockwise or coun- terclockwise until the display shows the desired channel.
To rapidly move up or down the channels, turn CHANNEL only slightly to the left or right.
4.Slowly turn SQUELCH clockwise until the hissing sound stops.
Note: If the CB picks up unwanted, partial, or very weak transmissions, turn SQUELCH clockwise to decrease the CB’s sensitivity to these signals. Turn SQUELCH counterclockwise if you want to listen to a weak or distant station.
5.Adjust VOLUME to a comfortable listening level.
6.To turn off the CB, turn VOLUME counterclockwise until it clicks.
