Your T6400 is compatible with both General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) and
Family Radio Service (FRS) channels. You can talk to FRS radios on channels
1-14. Remember that FRS radios operate at 0.5 watt of transmit power. On
channels 1-7, the T6400 operates at 1 watt. In certain situations, when talking to
FRS radios on channels 1-7, it is possible that they will be able to hear you, but
you will not be able to hear them. This is because you are transmitting with more
power (1 watt) than the FRS radio (0.5 watt). If this occurs, you must move closer
to the other person to have clear, two-way communication.
