BASIC OPERATION
■ Transmitting
vCAUTION: Transmitting without an antenna will damage
the transceiver.
☞ NOTE: To prevent interference, listen on the frequency be-
fore transmitting by pushing [MONI] or [➀MONI] on the mi-
crophone.
➀ Set the operating frequency. (pgs. 15, 17)
• Select output power if desired. See section at right for details.
➁ Push and hold [PTT] to transmit.
•“$” appears.
• The S/RF indicator shows the output power selection.
• The operating frequency, etc. is automatically programmed into a
scratch pad memory. See p. 34 for details.
• A one-touch PTT function is available. See p. 20 for details.
➂ Speak into the microphone using your normal voice level.
• DO NOT hold the microphone too close to your mouth or speak
too loudly. This may distort the signal.
➃ Release [PTT] to return to receive.
■ Selecting output power
The transceiver has 3* output power levels to suit your oper-
ating requirements. Low output powers during short-distance
communications may reduce the possibility of interference to
other stations and will reduce current consumption.
*The Thailand and Taiwan versions have only 2 levels.
Push [LOW] one or more times to select the output power.
• The output power can be changed while transmitting.
The microphone can also be used to select output power.
Push [➃HIGH] for high output power; [➄MID] for
mid-range output power; and [➅LOW] for low out-
put power.
• The output power CANNOT be changed via the micro-
phone while transmitting.
