I have a problem I monitor Madison Fire, Pd, and Ambulance frequencies. I have two recievers: a ICOM R2 and a YAESU VX-7R. I can listen to Madison PD loud and clear with my ICOM R-2 but when I put the same freq in the VX-7 all I hear is white noise. I tried the tone squelch but it blocks out everything. Can some one please help me?

Did you adjust the regular squelch? On my VX-5r its adjusted in the menu.

Either the wrong freq in being put in or the VX-7 has a birdie on that freq. If he is only hearing "white noise", adjusting the squelch won't help.
