The PMR446 service which this radio uses shares channels on a
'take turns' basis. This means that other users and groups may be
using any channel and privacy code combination.
To communicate with other PMR446 radios, all units must be
switched to the same channel (8 choices) and privacy code (50
CTCSS and 104 DCS choices). If the combination you have
chosen is already in use please make an alternative selection.
1. Switch on your radio.
2. Check and if necessary change the channel and privacy code
settings (see Function Mode).
3. To speak, hold the radio upright, about 10cm from your mouth
and press the PTT. Speak slowly and clearly towards the
radio. Release the PTT when you finish speaking.
You will hear messages from other radios that are within range
and have the same channel and privacy code setting.
The appropriate icon will appear in the radio display when you
receive or transmit a message.
An up to 3 digit Radio ID can be programmed when the radio is
switched on. You can customise this Radio ID to identify your
radio.
To enter the Radio ID edit mode, switch on the radio whilst
pressing the SCAN button and the MODE button.
1. Press the MODE button to select the first position.
2. Use the UP or DOWN button to change the character.
3. Press the MODE button to select the next letter.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the ID is complete.
5. Turn off the radio to finish editing.
7. Basic Radio Operation
8. Radio ID Editing
