Selecting Output Power
It's wise, and required by law, to select the lowest power
that allows reliable communication. If operating from
battery power, lower transmit power will give you more
operating time before a charge is necessary. Reducing
power lowers the risk of interfering with others on the
band too.
Press [F], [MN] to select the transmit power you
require.
Each time this key operation is repeated, the transmit
power is changed as shown below.
High
(No Indicator)
Medium
("M")

• The transmit power cannot be changed while transmitting.
