noise on the channel. Setting the squelch level higher filters out channel noise and lets only
actual radio transmissions through.
While listening to a channel, adjust the SQUELCH knob until the noise is filtered out and you
can only hear the transmission. If you switch to a channel with a lot of noise or with a weak
transmission, you may need to adjust the squelch level again.
#NOTE: Setting the squelch level too high may prevent you from hearing weaker
transmissions. If you are having difficulty hearing a transmission, try setting the squelch
level lower.

for two seconds. The display shows 25 Watts in the upper left
hand corner.
3. The transmit power remains at 25 Watts until you change the setting back. Push and
hold

for two seconds. The display shows 1 Watt.
#NOTE: Don’t forget to change the transmission setting back to 1 Watt when you move closer
to other stations.
