[Elecraft] Did You Know.....

[Don Wilhelm]

Mark,

The squelch on/off and level control is the first entry of the secondary menu - enter the menu and tap display to see it.  The level corresponds with the number of bars in the S-meter required to open squelch.
Squelch is used by default during scanning unless you turn squelch off.  See the scanning section of the manual.  

73,
Don W3FPR
