Troubleshooting

Limited talk range Steel and/or concrete structures, heavy foliage, use in buildings
or vehicles decrease range. Check for clear line of sight to
improve transmission.
Wearing radio close to body such as in a pocket or on a belt
decreases range. Change location of radio.
Heavy static or interference Radios are too close, they must be at least five feet apart.
Radios are too far apart or obstacles interfering with
transmission. Talk range is up to two miles in clear, unobstructed
conditions.
Channel and/or code locked Make sure radio is unlocked. See page 29.
Low batteries Replace alkaline batteries. Recharge or replace NiMH battery.
Extreme operating temperatures affect battery life.

starts to quick charge.
