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

counterclockwise until it clicks.
