MISCELLANEOUS

charging is occurring, and charging continues at the slow rate until the battery is removed from the charger. Approximate charge time in this slot for a fully discharged battery is 20 hours (with transceiver power off if applicable). If transceiver power is on, this slot basically maintains the charge of the battery.

Speaking Into Microphone

For best results, hold the speaker grille about 1-2 inches from your mouth and speak at a normal conversational level. Do not shout since it distorts your voice and does not increase range. Make sure that the PTT (push-to-talk) switch is pressed before you begin to speak and released as soon as the message is complete.

Operation At Extended Range

When approaching the limits of radio range, the other party may not be able to hear your transmissions and there may be an increase in back- ground noise when messages are received.

Even though you can hear messages, you may still be out of radio range. The reason for this is that the signal being received is normally transmitted by a repeater which usually has a much higher power level than is produced by your transmitter. Communication may be improved by moving to higher ground or away from shielding objects such as tall buildings or hills.
