■ Squelch attenuator
The transceiver has an RF attenuator related to the squelch
level setting. Approx. 10 dB attenuation is obtained at maxi-
mum setting. 
The squelch attenuator allows you to set a minimum signal
level needed to open the squelch. The attenuator function can
be deactivated in set mode.
➥ Rotate [SQL] clockwise past the 12 o’clock position to ac-
tivate the squelch attenuator.
• Attenuation level can be adjusted up to 
10 dB (approx.) 
between
12 o’clock and fully clockwise position.
NOTE: The squelch attenuator functions even when the
monitor function is in use. Thus set the [SQL] control
within 10 to 12 o’clock position is recommended when
using the monitor function.
