Operation
Setting the Squelch
1.To turn the unit ON, rotate VOLUME clockwise. Adjust volume to a comfortable level.
Note: You must select a channel which is not in use before setting the SQUELCH control on your radio.
2.Think of the Squelch control as a gate. If you turn SQUELCH fully clockwise it raises the "Squelch Gate" so high that no signals get through.

3.If you turn the SQUELCH fully counterclockwise it lowers the "Squelch Gate" so that everything gets through - noise, weak signals, and strong signals.
