Audiovox GMRS2VMK manual Transmit Power Selection Mode, VOX Selection Mode

Transmit Power Selection Mode

This feature permits selection of the transmitting power level to high or low. (FRS channels 1-7 operate on low power.) Using low power, the unit will have a lower transmit range, but battery life will be in- creased.

NOTE: You will find that for the majority of your needs, the low-power setting will provide adequate communications on all channels; 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 experi- ment 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.

To access the transmitter power selection function:

-From GMRS/FRS standby mode, press the MODE Button three times until the Po HI or Lo indication appears with a flashing HI or LO indica- tion on the display.

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

-Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm selection.

VOX Selection Mode

This option enables you to have hands-free conversation. Your voice or nearby sound is detected and the radio transmits without the need to press the PTT button.

To set radio for VOX operation:

-From GMRS/FRS standby mode, press the MODE button 4 times until the VOX icon flashes on the display.

-Press the Up or Down button to select VOX On (if oF appears flash- ing) and the 1-5VOX level sensitivity.

-Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm the VOX selection.

-The VOX icon will appear steady on the LCD display.

VOX can be turned off by selecting oF as the setting.
