Channel Selection

In order to communicate with other GMRS/FRS units, both the transmit- ting and receiving party must be on the same frequency.

The GMRS121-2 has 22 channels (frequencies) indicated by the large digits on the LCD display panel. Channels 1 through 7 are the shared GMRS/FRS channels. Channels 8-14 are FRS only channels, while chan- nels 15-22 are assigned GMRS only channels. Communication with Audiovox GMRS/FRS and compatible units is possible on these 22 chan- nels. Before transmitting on the selected channel, check the activity on that channel. If there is activity on the selected channel ( icon is displayed), change to another channel that is clear.

To change the channel:

-From GMRS/FRS standby mode, press the MODE button (8) once; the channel number flashes.

-Press the Up Button (6) briefly to move to the next higher main chan- nel number.

-Press the Down Button (7) briefly to move to the next lower main channel number.

-Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm selection.

Roger Beep Tone
