To Transmit and Receive
The Radio uses the UHF channels. Please refer page 21 for channel guidelines in Australia and New
Zealand. As soon as the Radio is switched on it will enter reception mode, but will not transmit any radio
signals automatically. The default channel for both Radios is 01.
1. The Radios are ready to communicate to each other if the channels selected on both the Radios are the
same. When the channel is clear, speak through the Radio by holding the PTT button located on the
left side of the Radio; the transmission indicator icon (TX) will appear on the display screen for voice
transmission. When you have finished speaking, release the PTT button and listen for a response.
2. You can also press the call (C) button to generate a call tone signal first. This tone will alert the other
Radio of your transmission. The (TX) icon will appear on the display screen for call tone transmission.
A call tone can only be transmitted once (not more than three seconds) in any 60 seconds period, no
matter how often you press the call (C) button. For detailed instructions on changing the call tone
please see page 27 of this manual.
3. When you are receiving an incoming transmission or a call tone on the current channel, the
receiving indicator icon (RX) will appear on the display screen and you will be able to hear the voice
transmission or a call tone. Adjust the volume to the desired level if necessary.
Warning: For optimum use, hold the Radio vertically and speak in a clear, normal conversational voice
into the microphone from a distance of around 5-8cm with the antenna at approximately 45º angle away
from your head.
Warning: For maximum range and to extend the life of the batteries, avoid touching the antenna with
your hand when transmitting. The radio transmitting range will shrink when the antenna comes into
contact with a person’s body.
