S-Meter / Power
There is a bar graph display for the signal strength of the received signals. More bars = higher
input signals. A strong signal with S 9 + 30 will show full deflection. The bar graph is used for
Power meter as well. 4 Watt = full deflection, 1 Watt = 2 or 3 bars.
Suelch Adjustment
Especially in FM the background noise will disturb on free channels. With the squelch control
SQ you can suppress this noise by carefull adjustment of the SQ potentiometer. You can also
suppress weak signals or signals, which are far away and which You may not wish to receive.
SQ to left position: All signals can be heard
SQ turned more clockwise: Signals must be stronger to open the squelch
Best setting to highest sensitivity:
- Go to a free channel without any signal
- Turn
SQ
slowly and carefully so much to the clockwise position, that the
background noise just disappears.
Now the speaker will suppress the disturbing background noise, but the radio is sensitive
enough to open when any usable signal appears.
The correct SQ setting is very important for the SCAN function. The SQ threshold point decides
about SCAN Stopp or SCAN restart
