HINTS FOR USING THE RADIO
When transmitting, hold the radio a few inches from your mouth and speak across it, rather
than into it. The microphone is located near the bottom right hand corner of the portable radio’s
speaker grille.
Keep the length of your conversation to a minimum to conserve battery life.
When possible, avoid making calls from known poor signal-strength areas such as the radio
systems fringe areas (limit of range) or from screened or shadowed areas, e.g. an underground
parking garage or underpass.
