MON (Monitor) function / Squelch
The Monitor button is for temporarily excluding (opening) the squelch, in order to listen to signals that are too weak
to keep the squelch permanently opened.
To activate the monitor function, keep pressed for about 2 seconds both ▲▼ at the same time. Follow the same
procedure to deactivate the function, or switch off and on the radio.
! When MON is active, you will probably hear a constant background noise.
! You can activate the Monitor feature only if the “Emergency” function is disabled.
Scanning all the channels
Midland G9 can automatically search for signals throughout the bands by scanning the channels in rapid
sequence. This function is useful to find out any active channel.
When a signal is detected, the scanning pauses on that channel for 5 seconds.
Press ▲ for 2 seconds: the scanning will start. To stop it, push PTT: the Midland G9 will go back to the channel
from which the scanning originally started.
! You can activate the scanning feature only if the “Emergency” function is disabled.

According to the version you bought, you can choose amongst the following channels:
› Dual band version: PMR446 from P1 to P8 and from 9p to 24p (pre-set) / LPD from 1 to 69.
› E version (PMR446 only): from P1 to P8 and from 9p to 24p (pre-set)
! Channel P8 has been set at factory for the “Emergency” function; we suggest that you do not use it for
general communications!
CTCSS/DCS tone setting
CTCSS and DCS tones are similar to access codes and enable the radio to communicate only with the users that
are tuned on the same channel and have set the same code. For each channel, you can set up to 38 CTCSS
