Selecting the channel
Eight channels are available.
Press the CH
s/t key and select a free channel. Through a long
keystroke the channels are switched continuously.
Note: Always adjust both radio sets to the same channel!
Transmitting/receiving
Hold the PTT key pressed and speak with normal voice level and a
distance of approx. 5 cm into the microphone, the TX symbol is displayed.
If your message is finished, release the PTT key, the TX symbol is no
longer displayed.
When the radio set is switched on, it is ready-to-receive (unless the
set is transmitting). If the radio set receives a signal, the RX symbol
is displayed.
Automatic squelch
Your radio set is equipped with an automatic squelch that prevents
that an annoying noise can be heard on free radio channels. However,
under certain conditions and depending on the distance - computers,
electric or electronic devices might interfere with this squelch, so that
you hear noises. Due to the supersensitive receiver of the radio set,
such interferences in immediate proximity are normal and unavoidable.
In case of such interferences you should change the distance to the
source of interference and hold the radio set in such a manner that
the antenna can send freely.
Pilot tone process CTCSS
Your radio set is equipped with a pilot tone process, that permits to
address specific individual partner stations or groups or to receive only
calls from the latter.
Note: 38 different tones are available. Make sure that you and your
partner use the same channel and the same pilot tone.
