Rotate the desired band’s [VOL] control to adjust the
audio output level.
Push [MONI] again to close the squelch.

w Select the desired band with [BAND].
e Set the audio level.
Push [qMONI] to open the squelch.

RF attenuator:
The transceiver has an RF attenuator re-
lated to the [SQL] setting. The attenuator is automatically
activated when [SQL] is rotated clockwise past the 12 o’-
clock position. Approx. 10 dB attenuation is obtained at full
rotation. Turn the automatic RF attenuator ON in advance
in set mode. (p. 66)
