INTRODUCTION
RadioShack welcomes you to the
next generation of personal commu-
nication — the Family Radio Ser-
vice (FRS). FRS is a new license-
free, two-way, short-range voice ra-
dio service that lets families and
groups keep in touch with each oth-
er on specific reserved channels.
Your RadioShack Personal Two-
Way Radio is a lightweight, palm-
sized radio that you can carry al-
most anywhere and use to talk with
another person who has an FRS ra-
dio set to the same frequency as
your radio (462.5625 MHz, FRS
Channel 1, or 467.5625 MHz, FRS
Channel 8).
Your radio has
auto-squelch
, which
means you will not hear anything on
a channel unless someone is trans-
mitting nearby on the same chan-
nel. You can use the
MON
(monitor)
key to temporarily turn off auto-
squelch and hear weaker, distant
transmissions.
The built-in modulation limiter circuit
automatically adjusts the radio for a
wide variety of voice levels to en-
sure a clear transmission.
