Your GXT Series radios are designed to give you maximum range
under optimum conditions.
Optimum Conditions are:

l Open rural areas without obstructions
l Flat areas where you can see the other person
To ensure you get maximum range:
l Be sure to use fresh or fully charged batteries - low batteries will
cause low power conditions
