Did you know your K2 has a squelch?

I installed the KIO2 module in my K2 and proceded to connect it to my laptop 
running Ham Radio Deluxe.  I'm impressed with the K2 interface in HRD.  All the 
controls are represented either in buttons or sliders and band changes are a 
ckick away.  I found a strange slider control that is has no corresponding 
front panel control on the K2, SQUELCH.  I adjusted this slider and low and 
behold, there is squelch in the K2!

I'm not sure what good squelch is when operating CW or SSB, but it is there.  
How do we make this control available when not running conputer control?

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.
