1 Select your desired band and frequency/channel.
2 Press and hold the microphone [PTT] switch and speak into the microphone to
transmit.
The TX-RX LED lights red for the selected transmit band and the RF power meter
appears on the display. The RF power meter shows the relative transmission output
power you selected.
“H”, “L”, or “EL” appear on the display, depending on the output power you have
selected.
Speak into the microphone in your normal voice, while keeping the microphone
approximately 5 cm (2 inches) from your mouth. Speaking too close to the
microphone or too loudly may increase distortion and reduce intelligibility of your
signal at the receiving station.
Your station’s transmit signal can be received when the receive frequency is 3 times
the transmit frequency.
Example: Transmit frequency is 146.000 MHz and receive frequency is 438.000 MHz.
3 When you finish speaking, release the [PTT] switch.
Note: When the transceiver overheats because of ambient high temperature
or continuous transmission, the protective circuit may function to lower the
transmit output power.

communication is still reliable. You can program separate transmit power settings
for band A and B.
Press [F], [MENU] to select high (default), low, or economic low power (lowest).
“H”, “L”, or “EL” appears to show the current selection.
