NOTE
Make sure to first select a channel not in use before setting the
squelch.
Think of the squelch control as a gate. If you
increase the squelch level to maximum, it raises
the “Squelch Gate” so only the strongest signals
get through.
VOL
E-16 Uniden Atlantis 155 Owner’s Manual
If you decrease the squelch level to minimum, it
lowers the “Squelch Gate”’ to the extent that weak
signals can get through.
If unwanted weak and noisy signals are getting
through, increase the squelch level (raise the
“Squelch Gate”) to a medium level. Now only
medium and strong signals get through.
S1 - minimum squelch
S2 - medium squelch
S3 - maximum/tight squelch
1. Press SQL UIC. SQL displays and the current squelch level
flashes.
2. Press SQL UIC while the squelch level displays
