FREQUENCY CHANGE INSTRUCTIONS
Normally, the PPA 250’s factory-set channel (usually 72.9 MHz) requires no change.
However, if another hearing assistance system or authorized radio service is operating on
72.9 MHz in your area, it may prove necessary to use an alternate channel
In this event, the PPA System 250’s operating frequency can easily be changed to an alternate
channel to avoid interference.
See the following sections for instructions on changing frequencies.
TRANSMITTER FREQUENCY CHANGE PROCEDURE:
Set the T4 Transmitter to any of the 10 available channels using the FM Channel/FM Power
Switch. See figure 9.
IMPORTANT: Some cities have other radio services licensed on hearing assistance
channels. Under FCC rules governing hearing assistance, you must yield to
them. A list of cities where other radio services are known to exist is
included with the transmitter. Do not use frequencies that are known to be
used by licensed radio services in your city, either if they are on the list or if
you discover one.
