Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew the default/recommended Service Squelch Settings for the Baofeng UV5R. I mainly use mine as a scanner but use frs 1 and 2.

Hi Lucas,

You set them to whatever values that suit you. I set mine so my radio will normally be set to the center squelch value (SQL = 5) and just incremented up and down from there. So for my UV-82 radio both VHF Squelch 5: and UHF Squelch 5: are both set to 44 with an increment of 5 both up and down from there.

Here is a guide with some recommendations. http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Squelch.php
