Serial Number_______________________ 
Your transceiver might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating properly.  To 
determine whether your transceiver is causing the interference, turn off your transceiver.  If the 
interference goes away, your transceiver is causing it.  Try to eliminate the interference by: 
 

• 

Moving your transceiver away from the receiver. 

 

• 

Contacting your local RadioShack store for help. 

 

Connecting Power 
 

The FRS/GMRS intercom requires the supplied 6V, 500mA AC adapter and a standard AC 
outlet for power. 

 
Caution: 

 

You must use a Class 2 power source that supplies 6V DC and delivers at 
least 500 mA.  Its center tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the 
FRS/GMRS intercom’s 

DC 6V 500 mA

 jack.  The supplied adapter meets 

these specifications.  Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could 
damage the FRS/GMRS intercom or the adapter. 
 

Always connect the AC adapter to the FRS/GMRS intercom before you connect it to AC 
power.  When you finish, disconnect the adapter from AC power before you disconnect if 
from the FRS/GMRS intercom.  

 

1.  Insert the supplied AC adapter’s barrel plug 

into the 

DC 6V 500 mA

 jack on the back of 

the FRS/GMRS intercom.

 

 

2.  Route the adapter cord into the groove on the 

back of the intercom.

 

 

3.  Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.

 

 

4.  Raise the antenna to a vertical position.

 

 

Mounting on a Wall 
 
Note: 

To mount the FRS/GMRS intercom on a wall, you need two screws (not supplied) with 

heads that fit the keyhole slots on the bottom of the FRS/GMRS intercom. 
 

1. 

Drill two holes 2¾

 

inches (70 mm) apart.  Then thread a screw into each hole, letting the 

screw heads extend about

 

-inch (3.5 mm) from the wall.
