The LED lights green or turns off, depending
on the SQL control setting.
Note:
When using the MC-90 microphone with the MJ-88 in FM
mode, select “3” (High) for the microphone gain. The microphone
sensitivity is low in FM mode. This may cause insufficient
modulation. For other microphones, select either “1” (Normal) or “2”
(Medium).
