OPERATION
Mode selection
The [RF/SQL] control adjusts either the RF gain or
the squelch. The action depends on the operating
mode and the condition of the RF/SQL item in
initial
set mode
(p. 31).
[RF/SQL] control priority
* The RF gain is set to maximum level when the [RF/SQL]
is set as [SQL] control.
The
RF gain
is used to adjust the receiver gain.
Shallow rotation moves the S-meter to the right indicating
the signal strength which can be received.
The recommended position for RF gain is the 12
o’clock position since this sets RF gain to the max.
The
SQUELCH
removes noise output from the
speaker (closed condition) when no signal is received.
The squelch is available for the other modes.
A segment appears in the S-meter to indicate the S-meter
squelch level.
