In telecommunications, squelch is a circuit function that acts to suppress the audio (or video) output of a receiver in the absence of a sufficiently strong desired input signal. carrier squelch is unlocked and will let any signal in. Selective calling locks out all signals except ones with the correct code. In non-critical uses, selective calling can also be used to hide the presence of interfering signals such as receiver-produced intermodulation.

Kind of the opposite of Muggle-born wizards, but Squibs are quite unusual.. â Ron Weasley discussing Argus Filch. A Squib, also known as a wizard-born, is a non-magical person who is born to at least one magical parent. Squibs are, in essence, 'wizard-born Muggles.' They are rare and are looked upon with a degree of disdain by some witches and wizards, particularly pure-bloods.
