IO.
PA/CB
SWITCH
. Selects the mode
of
operation.
Jn
the
CB
position. the
PA
function
is
disabled and the unit
will
transmit
and
r
eceive
on
the
selected frequency.
The
PA
function should not
be
used
unless
a
PA
speaker
is
connected.
To
use
this
PA
feature. a speaker
having
a
voice
coil
impedance of
8 ohms and a po
wer
handling capability of at least four watts should
be
used.
This
speaker must
be
plugged
into the
PA
SPKR
jack
at
the
rear
of the transceiver.
With
the
PA
speaker connected
as
outlined
previously,
be
sure that there
is
physical separation between the
microphone and the speaker itself. If the speaker
is
located
close
to the
microphone, acoustic feedback
will
result when the public address
system
is
operated at
high
volume.
Some
experimentation
will
determine the minimum amount
of
isolation required
for
a
given
sound
level
from the public address system.
NOTE
PA
volume
is
controlled by adjusting the
DYNAMIKE
KNOB
to
the
desired volume.
