SQUELCH
The squelch function cuts out annoying background noise when no sig-
nal is being received. To do this, set the channel selector to a channel
where no signals are present or wait until signals cease on your channel.
Midland 210 DS is supplied with two types of squelch: manual and au-
tomatic.
Manual: rotate the squelch knob in a counter-clockwise direction and
stop before you hear a 'clic' , then rotate it clockwise to the point where
the background noise just stops. Do not set the squelch too high, other-
wise weak signals will not be able to open the squelch circuit.
Automatic: rotate completely the squelch knob counter-clockwise and
stop after you will hear a 'clic' . Now the squelch will be automatically ad-
justed according to the background noise.
EMERGENCY CHANNELS (CH 9-19)
Midland 210 DS is equipped with a switch that allows to be immediately
set on the Priority cannels 9 and 19.
CH 9 is for Emergency communications, while CH 19 is used for asking
road condition information.
The centre position of the switch is for tuning on the latest selected chan-
nel.
REMOTE SPEAKER OPERATION
A 4 Ohm speaker, rated at 3-10 watts, should be used for this function.
Plug the speaker into the EXT SPKR jack at the rear of the transceiver.
When the external speaker is plugged in, the internal speaker is discon-
nected.
