Adjusting squelch (muting)

Particularly in FM, noise can be a nuisance on a free channel. With the muting
control (SQ, Squelch) you can suppress this noise - but also signals which are too
weak to be received properly.
This is how to adjust the signal strength required to switch on the loudspeaker, using
the SQ control knob:
The further the control knob is turned to the right, the stronger a signal has to be in
order to be audible through the loudspeaker.
In order to adjust the set to be the most sensitive to incoming signals, switch to a free
channel:
 Use the UP / DN switches to find a free channel, where no signal is
displayed.
 Then turn the squelch control SQ carefully to the right until the noise just
about disappears.
Now the loudspeaker stays off when on a free channel but it switches back on when
receiving even very weak signals.
