consumer-use in mind. The product is delivered to consumers after
being programmed by dealers. Some features are dealer-selectable
and programmable using editor-software only and they are not
mentioned in this manual.The product is blocked and not functional in
ex-factory state due to regulations.
Please read this manual completely from the first page to the last, to
learn basic functions the product offers. It is important to note that
some of the operations may be explained in relation to information in
other chapters. By reading just one part of the manual, you may risk
not understanding the complete explanation of the function.
■ Lightning
Any person is not safe outdoor during thunderstorm and lightning.
This condition is getting worse if somebody keeps a hand-held radio;
chances of being hit by lightning are doubled since lightning may hit a
radio antenna as well. At this time, there is no hand-held radio having
any kind of protection against lightning current (which is higher
than10 kA.). Note also that no car provides adequate protection of its
passengers or drivers against lightning as well. Therefore, Alinco will
not take responsibility for any danger associated with using its
hand-held radios outdoor or inside the car during lightning.
■ Covering ranges
(without using repeaters)
You may expect a range of approx.4km/2.5 miles or more at
high-power when located on a flat, noise-free place like on a beach.
However, it may vary depending on how to wear and carry the radios,
surrounding locations/conditions and static noise levels, etc. In urban
areas with many buildings or inside a building, such covering range
may become drastically short.
