Power On/Off

1. Turn the unit on by rotating the
POWER/VOLUME control clockwise.
Adjust volume to a comfortable level.
Note: You must select a channel which
is not in use before setting the
SQUELCH control on your radio.
2. Think of the Squelch control as a
gate. If you turn SQUELCH fully
clockwise it raises the "Squelch
Gate" so high that no signals get
through.
3. If you turn SQUELCH fully
counterclockwise it lowers the
"Squelch Gate" so that everything
gets through – noise, weak signals,
and strong signals.
4. To set the "Squelch Gate" to desired
level, turn SQUELCH
counterclockwise until you hear
noise. Then turn SWUELCH back
clockwise just until the noise stops.
Now only strong signals get through.
It beeps and the following greeting message appears on the LCD for 3
seconds.
SQUELCH
Adjust the SQUELCH control counterclockwise until you hear
background noise, and then turn it clockwise until the noise disappears.
