Abstract
Squelch circuitry for narrow band audio receivers which uses a sub-audible tone or coded signal to modulate the intermediate frequency in accordance with the presence of a desired broadcast signal and then detects the sub-audible tone frequency or coded signal in the modulated IF frequency to control the audio output of the receiver to an off condition when there is excessive noise.
