There is a squelch setting in FM mode. Go to the Audio tab and slide it up to around 40 (+/-) until the static stops. When a station transmits the squelch will open and you will hear the audio. If you set the squelch too high you will not hear weak signals.

Lonely Guys Net - 75 meter

One of the more interesting ham radio nets is the Lonely Guys Net on 3875 kHz on Saturday mornings at 8:00am ET. They usually have a large number of check-ins and an interesting topic of the day that gets discussed.

The video below does not do the content of the net justice but it does sound great on this old Hallicrafters.
