SOLUTION
Range is limited
•
BATTERY may be weak.
•
Recharge BATTERY if the BATTERY LEVEL indicator
is low.
•
Range varies depending on terrain and environment.
•
Open fields provide maximum range; steel/concrete
structures, heavy foliage, and operation in buildings and in
vehicles may significantly limit range.
•
Check the ANTENNA position. For optimum performance
make sure the ANTENNA is pointing upright.
Sound distortion
•
When transmitting, hold MICROPHONE 2 to 3 inches (5 to
7.5 cm) from mouth and speak normally.
•
When receiving, lower volume to a comfortable level.
•
Communicators must be at least 10 feet apart; increase
your distance.
•
Communicators are too far apart. Obstacles interfere with
transmission. Talk range is up to 1.5 miles in clear
unobstructed conditions.
