Squelch
Knob
The Power/Volume/Squelch knob located in the bottom left corner
of the bezel controls audio volume for the COM radio. Rotating the
knob clockwise past the detent turns power on and counter-clockwise
turns power off. When the COM radio is active, press the Power/
Volume/Squelch knob to toggle automatic squelch control On/Off for
the COM radio.
The GTR 200 radio receiver features an automatic squelch that rejects many
localized noise sources. You may override the squelch function by pressing
the
Power/Volume/Squelch
knob. This facilitates listening to a distant
station or setting the desired volume level.
To override the radio receiver automatic squelch, press the
Power/
Volume/Squelch
knob momentarily. Press the
Power/Volume/Squelch
knob again to return to automatic squelch operation. A “SQ” indication
appears to the left of the active COM frequency window in the upper
left corner of the display when automatic squelch is overridden.
