NOTES
1.

Reception can often be improved if you relocate
by a short distance. This effect is more noticeable
inside buildings.

The range of the MURS base radio is
approximately two miles, line-of-sight.
2.

If your radio does not detect calls from other
radios on the channel, turn off Quiet Call by
pressing and holding both volume buttons at the
same time
—a double beep indicates Quiet Call is
off.
3.

Without use of a repeater: To hear a call, select a
channel programmed to receive the caller’s
transmit frequency. To call another unit, select a
channel programmed to transmit the other radio’s
receive frequency.

Using a repeater: A radio channel can hold two
separate operating frequencies, one for receive
and one for transmit. Your channel must work
with the repeater’s transmit and receive
frequencies.

NOTE: A dealer must program the radio for
repeater operation.
4.

An optional RM-7 Remote Speaker / Microphone
and headset, plus the CCL-M 12 VDC Adapter,
allow operation in a vehicle. See page ii for
accessories.
5.

To “talk” with each other, radios must be
programmed identically for Quiet Call code, as
well as frequency. Each code is unique; radios
respond only to the code programmed.

Press and hold both volume buttons at the same
time.
A single beep indicates Quiet Call squelch is on.
A double beep indicates Quiet Call squelch is off.
CHART

Problem Possible Solutions
GENERAL

supply is connected.
Operating features do not
work exactly as expected.

The radio has been dealer programmed for customized operation.
(Consult dealer.)
Reception is poor.

Move to a different location. (See Note 1.)

Confirm the proper antenna is connected to the radio.

Use an optional high-gain antenna. See page ii, Optional
Accessories.
You cannot hear calls from
other radios.

Turn off Quiet Call (coded) squelch. (See Note 2.)

Ensure radio receives the same frequency the caller transmits.
(See Note 3.)
Your calls cannot be heard in
other radios.

Make sure that your radio transmits on the receive frequency of the
radio(s) you want to call. (See Note 3.)
ERROR TONES
An error tone sounds when
the radio is first switched on.

See “Error Tones” on page 6.
An error tone occurs while
transmitting.

Refer to “Transmitter Time-Out,” page 6.
QUIET CALL
You cannot screen out calls
from users outside of your
Quiet Call group.

Make sure that the channel is programmed with Quiet Call.

Activate coded squelch. (See Note 5.)
You cannot hear Quiet Call
messages while in Quiet Call
(coded) squelch.

Confirm that the channel is programmed to detect the same code
as the calling radio(s) transmits. (See Note 5.)
Others in your Quiet Call
group cannot hear your Quiet
Call messages.

Verify that you transmit the same code as the radio(s) you call are
programmed to detect. (See Note 5.)
SCAN
The radio constantly stops on
a busy channel, preventing
you from hearing calls on.

Skip over the interfering channel when scanning. See “Temporary
Busy Channel Blocking” on page 7.
