However squelch code 0 means no squelch, so what you should do is pick a
squelch code other than 0. 0 will receive any transmission on the channel
you've chosen (which is also a compatibility feature with the older models -
you can listen, but you can't send).
At least, this is how mine work (it gets amusing when skiing and you set it
on 0 - it appears every person on the mountain has one of the damn things!)

Subject: Re: GGF 8/27 Talkabouts Channel ?
They have 14 channels and each channel has 36 "squelch codes".
That is 504 combinations, all of which are independent and
non-interfering with each other. They work pretty well at all
settings, but the best transmission range & quality seems to be
on channel 7, squelch code 0.

Criminals prefer unarmed victims.
Politicians prefer unarmed peasants.
I am none of the above.
