Audiovox GMRS-2000 owner manual Transmit Power Selection Mode, Dual Watch Mode

Page 15

NOTE: To communicate with other FRS or GMRS units, they must be switched to the same channel and CTCSS subcode. To commu- nicate with other FRS units that do not have subcodes, switch your unit to the same channel with the subcode set to 00.

The CTCSS subcodes do not prevent others from hearing your transmission. This will only allow you to ignore all traffic on a given channel not using the same subcode.

Transmit Power Selection Mode

This feature permits selection of the transmitting power level at high or low. When set to low, the transmit range of the unit will be less; however, battery life will be increased. Each of the 15 GMRS channels may be set independently. Tune to the desired GMRS channel before setting the power level.

To access the transmitter power selection function from the GMRS mode:

-Press the Mode Button twice; a HI or Lo indication appears flashing on the display.

-Press the Up or Down button to toggle between the High and Low se- lections.

-Momentarily press the PTT Button to confirm selection, or simply wait approximately 10 seconds for the selection to affirm by itself.

The display will indicate the current channel setting in standby mode.

Dual Watch Mode

This feature allows you to monitor two special channels. While in dual watch mode, the unit will continuously monitor both the primary and dual watch channel. Received signals will be played for 5 seconds then the other channel will be scanned. Pressing the PTT button during a received transmission will set the unit to transmit on the same channel. Pressing the PTT button when no signal is received will set the unit to transmit on the primary channel. The weather alert function will be disabled in the dual watch mode. The dual watch mode will automatically terminate when the unit transmits.
