Radio Etiquette
Your radio’s 8 channels are shared on a "take turn" basis. This
means other groups may be talking on the channels. For
uninterrupted communications, follow the steps below:
1. Use the
)
button to check activity on the channel before talking.
2. Don’t talk over someone who is already using the channel - your
message may not be completely heard. Try changing the Channel
and Interference Eliminator Code to avoid channel congestion.
Note:
Since the channels are shared, your conversations will not be
private and you may hear others talking.
