Transmit Power Selection Mode
This feature permits selection of the transmitting power level to high
or low. When operating on FRS only channels (8-15), no power selec-
tion is possible or is displayed. Using low power, the unit will have a
lower transmit range, but battery life will be increased.
To access the transmitter power selection function:
- From GMRS/FRS standby mode (shared channels 1-7 or GMRS only
channel (15-22) selected), press the MODE Button three times until
the Po HI or Lo indication appears with a flashing PO indication
on the display.
- Press the Up or Down button to toggle between the High and Low se-
lections.
- Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm selection.
VOX Sensitivity Level Selection
This selection enables you to set the sensitivity level to compensate for
ambient noise in your immediate area. A VOX sensitivity of 3 is the most
sensitive, and should be used in a relatively quiet surrounding. A VOX
sensitivity of 1 is the least sensitive and should be used in a noisy sur-
rounding.
To set the VOX sensitivity level:
- Press the MODE button 4 times until the V
O icon appears on the dis-
play accompanied by the flashing VOX icon and the numeral 1, 2 or 3.
- Press the Up or Down button to select the 1-3 VOX level sensitivity.
- Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm the VOX selection.
- The VOX icon will disappear from the display unless VOX mode is
enabled.
Dual Watch Mode
This feature allows you to monitor two channels at the same time. While in
dual watch mode, the unit will continuously monitor both the primary and
dual watch channel. Received signals will be played for 5 seconds, then
the unit will resume scanning the two channels. Pressing the PTT button
