Each microphone input has an automatic squelch
threshold. Manual squelch override as well as keyed ICS
operation (for noisier cockpits) is also available.
The VOL/SQ knob manually adjusts squelch thresh-
old when the MAN SQ key is annunciated and the SQ an-
nunciation is lit. The small VOL/SQ knob controls pilot
squelch threshold and the large VOL/SQ knob controls
copilot/passenger squelch threshold. Turning either knob
clockwise increases the threshold. Turning either knob
counterclockwise decreases the threshold.
NOTE: In manual squelch mode, when the
VOL/SQ knob is adjusted to minimum, all crew
audio inputs can break squelch. When the
VOL/SQ knob is adjusted to maximum, the
ICS audio is heard only when an ICS PTT is
pressed.

MASTER AVIONICS SQUELCH (MASQ)

noise from the aircraft radios. When no audio is detected,
MASQ processing further reduces the amount of back-
ground noise from the radios.
