Uniden VOYAGER Two-Way Radio User Manual


 
Operation
See Controls and Indicators (page. 2) for button, knob, and key
positions.
When you turn On your VOYAGER, it is automatically tuned to
channel 16, the United States Coast Guard frequency for
distress, safety, and calling.
When you press any key (except PTT), a short tone sounds.
Turning On the Unit and Setting Squelch
Before you turn On the unit, turn the
Squelch knob fully counterclockwise.
Then, turn On the unit by turning the
Volume/Power knob clockwise until you
hear a hissing sound.
Turn the Squelch knob clockwise, just until
the hissing sound stops. Use the knob to
adjust to the desired squelch level. Think of
the squelch control as a frequency gate
which controls access to weak or strong
signals depending on its setting.
To listen to a weak or distant station, turn the knob
counterclockwise. If reception is poor, turn it clockwise to cut
out weak transmissions.
If the squelch control is adjusted so you continually hear a
hissing sound, the unit will not scan properly.
To turn Off the unit, turn the Volume/Power knob counterclock-
wise until it clicks.
