For most installations, squelch does not need adjustment, and it keeps the performer from hearing hiss or noise
bursts if the RF signal becomes compromised. However, in congested RF environments or in close proximity to
sources of RF interference (such as large LED video panels), the squelch may need to be lowered to prevent ex-
cessive audio dropouts. With lower squelch settings, the performer may hear more noise or hiss, but will experi-
ence fewer audio dropouts.
Important: Before lowering squelch, first try to eliminate the problem by finding the best set of frequencies for your
installation and removing potential sources of interference.
Caution: Turning off or lowering the squelch setting can increase the noise level and cause discomfort to the per-
former:
• Do not lower the squelch setting unless absolutely necessary.
• Turn earphone volume to the lowest setting before adjusting squelch.
• Do not change the squelch setting during a performance.
• Turn up the transmitter level setting to make noise or hiss less noticeable.
