Over voltage protection
The radio has a high voltage input detection system, to warn you if an over voltage situation occurs.
Example: If the power supply voltage exceeds 17volts DC, the cannel display (LCD backlight)
will flash in 3 different colors when the unit is turned on.
If the over voltage warning appears, you must switch your radio off and disconnect it from the
power source, before location the cause of the trouble.

receiver sensitivity.
A poor quality antenna or one not designed for the specific frequency band you are
using will give poor performance. You should purchase an antenna designed for the
27MHz frequency band.
Antenna installation
