Think of the squelch as a
gate. If you turn Squelch fully
clockwise it raises the
'Squelch Gate' so high that
no signals get through.
To get the 'Squelch Gate' to
the desired level, turn the
squelch knob counter-
clockwise until you hear
noise. Then carefully turn
the Squelch knob clockwise
until the noise fades. Now
only strong signals get
through.
If you turn Squelch fully
counterclockwise it lowers
the 'Squelch Gate' to the
extent that all signals get
through - weak, medium,
strong signals and noise.
Setting the Squelch
Turn the Unit ON by rotating
the volume control clockwise.
Turn the outer ring of the
control to adjust the Squelch.
You must select a
channel which is
not in use before
setting the
SQUELCH control.
(see p.6)
Selecting a Channel
Turn the Rotary Channel Selector to
select the desired channel.
Transmitting
Select the desired channel. Press the microphone's PTT button and
speak normally into the microphone. Hold it approx. 7cm from your
mouth. Release the PTT button to end the transmission and listen
for a reply.
Automatic Noise Limiter
ANL will reduce harsh background noise caused by some
interference. Momentarily press the ANL LED lights.
