SELECTING OUTPUT POWER
When ready to begin transmitting, press and hold [PTT]
and speak in a normal tone of voice. Speaking too close
to the microphone, or too loudly, may increase distortion
and reduce intelligibility of your signal at the receiving
station.
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. It is possible to change output power while
transmitting.
Press [LOW] to select the transmit power you require.
• Default: High power (no indicator visible)
• Each press of [LOW] changes the power as follows:
High
Mid ("MID"'
■> Low ("LOW")
