Channel Selection

In order to communicate with other GMRS units, both transmitting and receiving party must be on the same frequency. The GMRS9010-2CH has 22 channels (frequencies) indicated by the large digits on the LCD dis- play panel. Channels 1 through 7 are the shared GMRS/FRS chan- nels. Channels 8-14 are FRS only channels, while channels 15-22 are assigned GMRS only channels. If an FRS only channel (8-14) has been selected, the HI or LO indicator will not be displayed on the LCD panel; otherwise, for channels 1-7 (GMRS/FRS) and 15-22 (GMRS only), the HI or LO indicator will be displayed. Communication with Audiovox FRS and compatible units is possible on the shared and FRS only channels. Before transmitting on the selected channel, press the Monitor (M) Button (2) to check the activity on that channel. If there is activity on the selected channel, change to another channel that is clear.

To change the channel:

-From GMRS/FRS standby mode, press the MODE button (12) once or until the channel number flashes.

-Press the Up Button (10) briefly to move to the next higher main channel number.

-Press the Down Button (11) briefly to move to the next lower main channel number.

-Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm selection.
