POWER SETTING (Refer to Page 12.)
Your GMRS-7000 can operate at two power levels: High (2W) and Low (0.5W). You will find that for the majority of your needs, the low-power setting will provide adequate communications and there should seldom be any need to use high power, except in situations where you need absolute maximum range. Using low power will greatly extend battery life. We suggest you experiment with switching between low and high power. However, we do recommend that you not change this setting unless it proves to be necessary in your particular situation.
