POSSIBLE ISSUES
When a new narrowband radio receives a transmission
from an older wideband radio the speech may sound loud
and distorted – simply adjust your radio volume for best
performance.
When an older wideband radio receives a signal from a
newnarrowbandradio,thespeechmaysoundquiet-
simply adjust your radio volume for best performance.
Depending on how close your receiving radio is to another
transmittingradio,therecanbeinterferencefromthe
transmitting radio if it is using a channel adjacent to the
channel you are listening to. Simply try going up or down a
few channels from the currently selected channel.
The above situations are not a fault of the radio but a
symptom of operating wideband and narrowband radios
in the same bandwidth. This possible interference will
decrease over time as the population of wideband radios
ages and decreases.
