16. Maximizing Remote Range
Remote range can be affected by many factors. Some of these factors can be controlled while
others cannot. In order to achieve the best possible remote range with your X2S digital game
call system, it is recommended that the following points be observed:

Always use high quality alkaline or lithium cell batteries in the remote.

Always maintain clear line of sight between the remote control and the X2S. Any
obstructions—no matter how significant or insignificant—can adversely affect the
radio signal.

Try to keep the remote control approximately six inches away from your body, gun
barrel, and metal shooting sticks as these things can detune the remote control.

Hold the remote control vertically with the antenna pointing skyward.

Avoid using the device remotely when you are near power lines, cellular phone
towers, and radar (such as near airports or military installations).
