Setting the Squelch Since Squelch is automatically adjusted in trunking mode, it isn't necessary to manually adjust the squelch control while trunk tracking. However, the squelch setting you select before you begin trunk tracking can affect how fast your scanner acquires the data channel, and, in some instances, the squelch setting can prevent your scanner from acquiring the data channel at all. Set SQUELCH in this position before selecting a trunking bank. SQUELCH Note: You can change this recommended setting, if necessary, to provide better performance in your area. VOLUME Programming Trunking Frequencies Before you start programming your scanner to track a trunked system, consider the following: You can only program one trunking system in each bank of your scanner.
