Voice squelch control function
This function is useful when you don’t want unmodu-
lated signals pausing or cancelling a scan. When the
voice squelch control function is activated, the trans-
ceiver checks received signals for voice components.
If a received signal includes voice components, and
the tone of the voice components changes within 1
second, scan pauses (or stops). If the received signal
includes no voice components or the tone of the voice
components does not change within 1 second, scan
resumes.

Scan set mode
When the squelch is open, scan continues until it is
stopped manually— it does not pause on detected
signals. When squelch is closed, scan stops when de-
tecting a signal, then resumes according to the scan
resume condition. Scan speed and the scan resume
condition can be set using the scan set mode.
