Turning on the Scanner
The squelch and attenuator control scanner sensitivity.
If squelch is set too low, the scanner may stop on
noise or silence.
Note: Make sure the scanner’s antenna is connected
before you turn it on.
1. Turn the SQUELCH knob to about mid-position.
2. Turn the VOLUME knob to turn on the radio.
3. Turn SQUELCH down (counterclockwise) until you
hear noise.
4. Turn SQUELCH up (clockwise) a little past where
the noise stops. The higher the squelch is set, the
stronger the signal required to break the squelch.
