7.3 Radio Settings
(1) Step frequency (Step) – MENU + 1
This function lets you select the desired frequency step.
The selectable steps are the following: 2.5K/5.0K/6.25K/10K/12.5K/20K/25K/50K/100K.
Note: in channel mode, this function cannot be modified.
(2) Squelch level (Squelch) – MENU + 2
Thanks to this function you can adjust the squelch in 5 different levels:
• OFF: opened squelch. With this setting, the radios will detect all signals, also the weakest ones, but will also receive the background noise or
undesired signals.
• Levels 1- 5: level 1 (lowest squelch level), level 5 (highest squelch level).
If the squelch is set to the highest level, the radio will receive the strongest signals only.
(3) Power save (Power Save) – MENU + 3
When the radio is in standby, the power saving function reduces battery consumption. Turning on will be more power efficient, but you may
miss the first few syllables before RX turns on.

automatically.

Off: Turns off the VOX function.
(5) VOX Level (Vox Level) – MENU + 5
From this menu, you can select the VOX sensitivity level.
The selection range is from 1 to 9。
