A. On/Off/Volume/Squelch
The knob at the top left of the front panel ( in Figure 1) is the volume control. Press it
to turn the radio on. Press and hold to turn the radio off.
The ring around the volume control knob ( in Figure 1) serves as the squelch control on
2 m / 70 cm FM, and as the RF gain control on HF and 6 m. The manual describes a
number of special functions that this control can perform based on menu settings. To
avoid confusion, it would be best to stick with the default behavior. For a radio that must
be used by a number of different operators, it’s really important to keep things simple and
consistent.
