Transmission
To communicate, all radios in your group must be set to the same channel.
Briefly press the Function key 1 to enable the Monitor feature in order to make
sure that the frequency is not busy, then press the PTT button.
For a maximum clarity, hold the device at a distance of about 4/10 cm.
Release the PTT key to receive.
Only one user at a time can talk during radio communications. Therefore, it is
important not to transmit when you are receiving a communication and use the
transmission mode sparingly to allow other users to talk.
Transmission consumes a significant amount of energy and should therefore be
used sparingly to prolong the battery life.
If you are unable to contact a station that you have no problems in receiving, the
station may be using CTCSS tones or DCS codes.
Monitor
The Monitor feature is for excluding (opening) the Squelch, in order to listen to
signals that are too weak to keep the Squelch permanently opened.
Press briefly the Function key 1 to enable such function.
Scan
This function is enabled by pushing the Function key2 for 2 seconds; the led
will alternately blink green.
Whenever any signal is detected, the scanning will stop on a busy channel and,
if no operation is done, will start after 5 seconds.
