User manual
Within the radius of reach you can communicate via an optional
number of radio sets, however, only one person can talk and the
other/s listen. Uncoded voice radio links are not confidential!
The range is a function of many factors. Apart from the statutory
transmitting power other factors are relevant: e.g. the position of the
antenna (it should be installed at right angle and send freely), the
energy supply (fully charged battery packs fully exploit the reach)
and above all the environment where you transmit. Each obstacle
(hills, buildings, trees) reduces the range, some materials (e.g. rein-
forced concrete, pieces of rock) give rise for considerable screening
effects. Under optimum conditions (e.g. during sailing or paragliding)
PMR 446 radio sets have a maximum reach of 10 km. In housing
areas a range of 2 - 3 km is realistic, in strongly screened environment
(e.g. in the mountains or inside buildings made of reinforced concrete)
the reach may drop to a few hundred meters or less.
