Using Your Radio

Turning It On

Press and hold POWER for at least two seconds to turn the radio on. Press and
hold POWER again to turn the unit off.

Setting It Up

Even though you can change your radio's settings at any time, you will prob-
ably want to establish initial settings after you have turned it on for the first
time. You will adjust some of these settings on an as-needed basis, but some
settings might only need to be set once.

Changing the volume

To change the speaker volume, press VOL/SQ to enter Volume Setting mode.
0 (for volume level 0 - 9) displays. Press CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN
to increase or decrease the volume levels. Press VOL/SQ to save.

Setting the Squelch level

The PM-2050 SWF recognizes signals as transmissions if they exceed a signal
strength threshold.
Adjusting the squelch sets this threshold level. Increasing squelch requires a
signal to be stronger to be seen as a transmission. If you set the squelch too
high, you will risk not receiving transmissions that are lower than that threshold.
Reducing the squelch allows weaker signals to be accepted. However, if you
lower the squelch too much, you will hear white noise all the time.
