1.8 OPERATING
TIPS
The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios and should be avoided
whenever possible:
•
Operating the radio in areas of low terrain, or while under power lines or bridges.
•
Obstructions such as mountains and buildings.
In areas where transmission or reception is poor, communication improvement may
sometimes be obtained by moving a few yards in another direction, or moving to a
higher elevation.
