Micr
ophone Connector: Plug in the supplied microphone to this connector. Received signals will not be heard without the

ANL ON/OFF B
utton: Press this button once to activate the automatic noise limiter. When in ANL mode, ignition noise will
be reduced. Press the button again to deactivate ANL.
Weather(WX) Scan/CB But
ton: Press this button once to activate the weather scan. The radio will begin scanning and
lock on the first weather channel broadcast signal strong enough to use. If later the signal becomes too weak to use the
unit will automatically resume scanning to find a usable signal. The user can also make the unit scan to another channel
by pressing the microphone PTT button. The unit will rescan channels each time the CB/WX button is used to listen to
weather. When the radio is in weather scan mode, the user cannot use the CB/PA function.
S
quelch Control: This control is used to cut off or eliminate receiver background noise in the absence of an incoming sig-
nal. For maximum receiver sensitivity it is desired that the control be adjusted only to the point where the receiver back-
ground noise or background noise is eliminated. Adjust until the receiver noise disappears. This will require the incoming
signal to be slightly stronger than the average receiver noise. Further clockwise rotation will increase the threshold level
which a signal must overcome in order to be heard. Only strong signals will be heard at a maximum clockwise setting
RF Gain: This control is used primarily to optimize reception in strong signal areas. Gain is reduced by counter clockwise
rotation of the control.
Channel Knob:
This knob selects any one of the 40 Citizens Band channels. The selected channel is indicated by the LED
readout, directly above the Channel Knob.
