OPERATION
TURNING ON/SQUELCH
TURNING YOUR
HANDHELD CB ON
Rotate the power ON-OFF
Volume Control clockwise.
Open the squelch by fully turn-
ing counterclockwise
and adjust the volume to
a comfortable level.
SETTING THE SQUELCH
Think of your squelch control
as a gate for incoming signals.
If you turn the squelch control
fully clockwise, you effectively
close the “gate” and no signals
will pass through. If you turn
the squelch control fully counter-
clockwise, you
open the gate and all
signals come through.
To achieve the Desired Squelch
Setting (DSS), turn the squelch
control counterclockwise until
you just hear noise. Then turn the
squelch control back clockwise
just until the noise stops. This
DSS setting only lets strong sig-
nals through.
ANTENNA
Attach antenna securely
by turning clockwise.
