    Why does my Binatone MR150 have sound distortion problems?
    • S
      Sarah ThomasAug 9, 2025
      Sound distortion in your Binatone Radio can occur if the radios are too close together—they should be at least 1.5 meters apart. It can also happen if the radios are too far apart or if obstacles interfere with transmission. Remember that the talk range is up to 3 Km (2 miles) in clear, unobstructed conditions.

      Erica CostaAug 17, 2025
      The range of your Binatone Radio might be limited if the batteries are weak. Replace them with new ones if the battery charge level indicator is low. Keep in mind that the maximum range will vary depending on the terrain and environment.
