Basic Operations
4.3 Adjusting the Squelch
The squelch is a function for eliminating noise which is
generated when none of the signals are monitored.
"To open squelch" means that the DJ-C7 monitors any of the
higher signals than the squelch level you set, and the receiving
sound will be heard.
• There are 10 squelch levels. (0-9)
• Default is set as 3.
1. Press the dial twice.
will be displayed on the LCD indicating the present
squelch level.
2. Adjust a squelch level by rotating the dial.
When you set it to a higher level, insufficient (weak) signals
would be interrupted while monitoring or would not be
monitored at all.
Generally, you should set the squelch to the lowest level where
the noise would be cut off.
Depending on the frequencies and the radio wave
circumstances around you, the squelch level may need to be
adjusted.
3. Press the dial again or the PTT key to complete the
setting and to return to the normal.
It also returns to the normal when no dial operations continue
for 5 seconds.
4.4 Operating Modes

Everytime you press the key, the operating mode can be
switched between these two.

be displayed on the LED, however, nothing indicates in VFO
mode.
