Adjustingthesquelchlevel
Annoying noises can be muted when a signal cannot be detected. Band A and Band B
squelch levels can be individually adjusted. Noise can be canceled more easily when
the squelch level is increased but it may become more difficult to pick up weak signals.
Adjust the squelch level as required.
1 Press [SQL]
The sub-band will be displayed, and the current
squelch level will be displayed on the SQL meter.
2 Turn the DIAL to adjust the squelch level
The squelch level displayed on the sub-band display
and the level displayed on the SQL meter will be
changed.
Tip If you do not perform any operation for 3 seconds after
changing the meter display or turning the DIAL, the
screen will return to the normal screen.
