ing the absence of a transmission. Turn the control fullycounter clockwise,
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. Youcan select any level to "Break
Squelch"
