TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Possible Reasons and Potential Solutions
No Power
Recharge or replace the battery pack;
Extreme operating temperatures may affect battery life.
Hearing other noises or
conversation on a
channel
Confirm CTCSS/DCS is set;
Frequency or CTCSS/DCS may be in use;
Change settings: either change frequencies or
CTCSS/DCS on all radios;
Make sure the radio is at the right frequency and privacy
code when transmitting.
Audio quality not good
enough
Radio settings might not be matching up correctly.
Double check frequencies, CTCSS/DCS and bandwidths
to make sure they are identical in all radios.
Limited talk range
Steel and/or concrete structures, heavy foliage, 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. UHF radios provide great
coverage in industrial and commercial buildings.
Increasing power provides greater signal range and
increases penetration through obstructions.
Can not transmitted or
received
Make sure the PTT button is completely pressed when
transmitting;
