In the conventional mode of operation, the squelch can be re-adjusted in the MENU

selection mode or from a front panel key on the keypad that has been pre-programmed. A

default value of 9, or any user level between 1 and 16, can be selected using programming

software. The user can change this setting either of two ways from the front panel keys.

very weak signal to open squelch, and a value of 1 is open squelch.

NOTE

When the squelch adjust feature is activated, Channel Guard, T99 decode,

and Scan are disabled. When the squelch adjust feature is exited, Channel

Guard, T99 decode, and Scan are restored to their previous states.
