TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING
Note: Before you can use your radio to talk to a person using another Deluxe FRS radio, you
must tune both radios to the same channel, interference eliminator code (if used), and Eaves-
drop Reducer code (if used).
The channel represents one of the radio frequencies your radio uses to transmit and receive.
The interference eliminator codes help filter out static, noise, and unwanted messages (see
“Interference Eliminator Codes” on Page 58). The Eavesdrop Reducer codes let you set your
radio so its transmissions sound garbled to listeners whose radios are not set to the proper
code (see “Eavesdrop Reducer” on Page 45).
To transmit, hold down
M
and speak about 2–3 inches away from the microphone. When you
finish transmitting and want to receive, release
M
. The indicator above
P
lights red as you
transmit.
