From: "peteohms" <apeterchristensen@sbcglobal.net>


I have a King KY 97a in my Kitfox.  We had a heavy sandstorm where it is parked
of 50 mph winds.  When I went flying a day or two after the windstorm, the radio
on receive sounded unsquelched.  I can't find a squelch on the radio.  I believe
it is automatic.  I think somehow the electrical buildup on the antenna
from the sandstorm did something to the radio.  Anyone out there know any solutions?

The squelch is opened by pulling out the volume knob. I suspect you've left it
clicked out.

If not, you can check the internal setting which is a small screwdriver adjustment
via a hole on the top cover "SQ" there is another adjustment for signal level
squelch too. These holes are normally covered by s sticky label.

Thanks Ralph,  The volume knob is probably it.  I'll let you know.
