Boosting The Transmission Power; Saving Channels To Memory - Uniden MHS115 Owner's Manual

Using Your Radio

Boosting the transmission power

In most situations, 1W transmission power is all you need. If you find yourself
far away from other stations and have trouble getting a response, you may
need to boost the transmission power from 1W or 2.5W to 5W.
Some Channels are 1W only and do not have power override
capability. See page 26 for a list of power-restricted channels.
NOTE
1. Select the channel you want to transmit on.
2. Press and hold TX PWR button to switch to the next transmission power
level (for example, from 5W to 2.5W; from 2.5W to 1W, or from 1W back to
5W).
3. The display shows the new transmission power. The transmit power
remains at the new setting until you change it again.
Some channels limit the transmission power to 1W. When you tune to a
limited power channel, the radio automatically switches to 1W.
See page 26 for a list of power-restricted channels.

Saving Channels to Memory

If you find a channel you like and want to listen to it again, save it to memory.
Press and hold SCAN/MEM; the active channel is stored in memory and
MEM displays. Press SCAN/MEM to scan the channels in memory.
You must have at least 2 channels in memory in order to use
Scan mode. Channel 70 cannot be stored into memory.
NOTE
Press and hold SCAN/MEM again to remove the channel from memory.
