3.5 Battery Life Guidelines
• New batteries should be fully (trickle)
charged and fully discharged several times to
achieve full capacity.
To a large extent, the battery life will depend
on the usage, or Duty Cycle of the radio - i.e
the battery will be drained much quicker if
the radio is transmitting continually than if it
is just receiving. Additionally, if the radio is
set to High Power (5 watts*), the power drain
will be considerably greater than if transmit-
ting on Low Power (1 watt*)
* Standard power settings.
