INTERCOM VOLUME AND SQUELCH

The MAN SQ key and VOL/SQ knob control the
volume and squelch of the intercom. The MAN SQ key
allows either automatic or manual control of the squelch
setting. The VOL/SQ knob controls volume or manual
squelch adjustment for the pilot and copilot/passenger.
When the MAN SQ annunciator is not lit (auto-squelch
is on), the VOL/SQ knob controls only the volume.
When the MAN SQ annunciator is lit (manual squelch),
the VOL/SQ knob controls both volume and squelch.
