When a narrowband radio receives a transmission from an older wideband radio the speech may sound loud and 

distorted – simply adjust your radio volume for the best listening performance. When an older wideband radio 

receives a signal from a new narrowband radio the speech may sound quieter - simply adjust your radio volume for 

best listening performance. When operating a narrowband radio or Channel 41 - 80 interference is possible from 

wideband radios transmitting on high power or on adjacent frequency. 

The issues described above 

are not a fault of the radio

 but a consequence of mixed use of wideband and 

narrowband radios. 

This unit complies with all relevant Australian 

and New Zealand approval requirements
