Auto Squelch
The Auto Squelch (ASQ) feature can help to improve the receiver
performance experience when enabled for communicating with
nearby stations. For weaker or more distant stations consider using
the SQ (traditional squelch) system or disable squelch for continuous
receiver audio.

1. Turn ON the radio.
2. Select the desired channel.
3. Set squelch to OFF (audio noise heard from speaker).
4. Set the receiver volume to a comfortable listen level.
5. Reset the squelch level for the intended listening requirements.

Operating Procedure to Transmit
Be sure the antenna is properly connected to the radio before
transmitting. Prolonged transmitting without an antenna, or with a
poorly matched antenna, could cause damage to the transmitter.

2. The receiver and transmitter are controlled by
the Push-to-Talk switch on the microphone.
Press the switch and the transmitter is activated; release
switch to receive. When transmitting
(on a clear channel), hold the microphone
two inches from the mouth and speak clearly
in a normal voice.
