Charging Status LEDs
On the drop-in charger, the radio and battery charging pockets have their own LEDs.
On the MUC, each of the 6 charging pockets has an LED. The LEDs are grouped into pairs to
show which charging pockets are paired (for cloning, see page 27).
The LED is solid red when the battery is charging, and solid green when charging is complete.

battery power is remaining.
