OPERATING TIPS
Antenna location and condition are important when operating a portable radio. Operating the radio
in low-lying areas or terrain, under power lines or bridges, inside of a vehicle, or in a metal framed
building can severely reduce the range of the unit. Mountains can also reduce the range of the
unit.
In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement may be obtained by
ensuring that the antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in another direction or moving to a higher
elevation may also improve communications. Vehicular operation can be aided with the use of an
externally mounted antenna.
Battery condition is another important factor in the trouble-free operation of a portable radio.
Always properly charge the battery. Use of optional features, such as GPS, will impact operational
run time.
Do not cover the microphone, speaker, connectors, buttons, etc., with any labels
or other obstruction.
CAUTION
1.6.1
Efficient Radio Operation
Keep the antenna in a vertical position when receiving or transmitting a message.
Do NOT hold onto the antenna when the radio is powered on!
WARNING
NEVER cover the air vent on the radio with any sticker or asset tag. Doing so could
result in 100% loss of receive audio, low receive audio, distorted receive audio, etc.
CAUTION
