■ Adjusting the Squelch Level
Squelch is used to silence the speaker when no
signals are present. When squelch is turned OFF,
you will hear background noise from the speaker.
When it is ON, you will not hear background noise.
The squelch level you select determines when
squelch will turn OFF and ON. If you select a
squelch level that is too high, you will not hear
weaker signals. If you select a squelch level that is
too low, you will hear background noise between
signals.
