Turning On Your Radio
Sharing Radio Channels
Your radio has multiple channels that you share with other groups on a “take turns”
basis. Other groups may be talking on the channels. For uninterrupted
communications, do not talk over someone who is already using the channel – your
message may not be completely heard. If someone is using your channel, change
to a different channel and press
F to see if the channel is clear. If you hear static while
holding down
F, the channel is clear to use.
