1.SQUELCH- The squelch control is used to eliminate background noise during the absence of a transmission. Turn the control fully counterclockwise, then slowly rotate it back clockwise until all noise disappears. At this setting any transmission must be slightly stronger than the background noise to "Break Squelch" or to be heard. Further clockwise rotation will increase the threshold at which a signal will be heard. You can select any level to "Break Squelch".

2.S/RF METER - This LED meter shows the relative strength of the received signal or transmit power.

3.CHANNEL INDICATOR - Displays the channel currently in use.

4.CHANNEL SELECTOR - This switch selects the desired channel for transmission and reception. All channels, except channel 9, may be used for communications between stations operating under different license. Channel 9 has been reserved by the D.O.C. for emergency communications involving the immediate safety of individuals or the immediate protection of property. Channel 9 also may be used
