NOTES FOR GOOD COMMUNICATION

1 . The GMRS1100-2CH 22 channels are shared on a ‘take turns’ basis. This means other groups may be talking on any of the channels. A common code of ethics/courtesy is to switch to another vacant channel and not to attempt to talk over someone who is already using the channel you first selected.

2.The GMRS1100-2CH has been designed to maximize performance and improve transmission range in the field. To avoid interference, it is recommended that you do not use the units closer than 5 feet apart.

3.For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about 2-3 inches from the microphone (12) and speak slowly in a normal voice.

4.To increase battery life, avoid features such as Scan, Dual Watch and Weather Alert. These features will reduce operating time considerably.
