Basic Radio Operation

The PMR446 service which this radio uses shares channels on a 'take turns'

basis. This means that other users and groups may be using any channel

and privacy code combination.

To communicate with other PMR446 radios, all units must be switched to the

same channel (8 choices) and privacy code (50 CTCSS and 104 DCS

choices). If the combination you have chosen is already in use please make

an alternative selection.

1. Switch on your radio

2. Check and if necessary change the channel and privacy code

settings (see function mode)

3. To speak, hold the radio upright, about 10cm from your mouth and

press the transmit key (PTT). Speak slowly and clearly towards the

radio. Release the PTT when you finished speaking.

You will hear messages from other radios that are within range and have the

same channel and privacy code settings.

The appropriate icon will appear in the radio when you receive or transmit a

message.
