Selecting the Transmit (TX) Power Level

The MXT400 provides up to 3 transmit power levels; Hi, Mi and Lo. The Lo
power level is generally suitable when operating under optimum conditions
(see About Range). The Hi power level is recommended to ensure you
get maximum range from your radio.
To adjust the Transmit Power Level:
1. Press the Plvl button to toggle the transmit power setting between Hi,
Mi and Lo.
▪
Only the Mi and Lo transmit power settings will be indicated on the
LCD, when neither Mi or Lo is indicated the unit is set to Hi transmit
power.
▪
Due to output power regulations channels 1 through 7 cannot be
removed from the Lo transmit power setting.
