Coverage/Range The maximum range depends on terrain condition and is obtained during use in an open space. The only limitation to maximum possible range are environmental factors such as blockage caused by trees,buildings, or other obstructions. Inside a car or a metallic constructions, the range can be reduced. Normally the coverage in the city, with buildings or other obstructions is about 1 or 2 Km.

To turn the radio off, rotate the control counter-clockwise till hearing a mechanical “click”. Transmission To communicate, all radios in your group must be set to the same channel.
Squelch The Squelch function suppresses noises on free channels and allows to receive even weak signals. G10 PRO has 10 different Squelch levels that can be set by programming software: 0 means that the Squelch is turned off; from level 1 to level 9 you will have different levels of noise reduction. The higher is the level, the louder will be the Squelch. By default, the Squelch level of G10 PRO is set on level 4.
Battery recharge G10 PRO is equipped for using a 7,4V Li-ion rechargeable battery pack which can be recharged connecting the socket of the AC/DC wall adaptor to a mains power socket and inserting the jack of the wall adaptor into the desktop charger plug. It takes 4-5 hours to fully recharge the radio. For maximum battery life, we recommend charging the battery pack when the G10 PRO is off and the battery pack is fully discharged.
