TALK RANGE
XTNi radios have been designed to maximize
performance and improve transmission range
in the field. It is recommended that you do not
use the radios closer than 1.5 meters apart, to
avoid interference.
Talk range depends on the terrain. It will be
affected by concrete structures, heavy foliage
and by operating radios indoors or in
vehicles.
Optimal range occurs in flat, open areas with
up to 9 kilometres of coverage. Medium range
occurs when buildings and trees are in the
way. Minimal range occurs when dense foliage
and mountains obstruct the communication
path.
To establish a proper two-way communication,
the channel, frequency, and interference
eliminator codes must be the same on both
radios. This depends on the stored profile that
has been preprogrammed on the radio:
