7.2 Using short-cuts
As you may have noticed if you looked at Appendix C, Shortcut Menu operations, every menu item has a numerical value
associated with it. These numbers can be used for direct access of any given menu item.
The parameters also have a number associated with them, see Appendix C, Shortcut Menu operations for details.

b. Use the numerical keypad to enter the number of the menu item.
c. To enter the menu item, press the [MENU] key.
d. For entering the desired parameter you have two options:
a). Use the arrow keys as we did in the previous section; or
b). Use the numerical keypad to enter the numerical short-cut code.
e. And just as in the previous section;
a). To confirm your selection, press [MENU] and it will save your setting and bring you back to the main menu.
b). To cancel your changes, press [EXIT] and it will reset that menu item and bring you out of the menu entirely.
f. To exit out of the menu at any time, press the [EXIT] key.
g. All further examples and procedures in this manual will use the numerical menu short- cuts.
7.3 Functions and operations
(1) Squelch level (SQL) - MENU No.0
Thanks to this function you can adjust the squelch in 10 different levels:
• level 0: opened squelch. With this setting, TP5 will detect all signals, also the weakest ones, but will also receive the
background noise or undesired signals.
• levels 1- 9: level 1 (lowest squelch level), level 9 (highest squelch level).
