How to Turn on the

turn on the flashlight, you have to press the
“MONI” button on the left-hand side of the
radio.
How to
Transmit/Talk to
Somebody
If you want to contact somebody, once you
reach the desired frequency (

hold the push-to-talk button on the side of
your radio. It’s the biggest button there.
Make sure that you hold in the button the
entire time that you’re talking, releasing it
when you’re done.
