Content of the packaging

• Mounting bracket

• Antenna with cable

• Microphone

• Microphone holder

• Screws

• Cigarette lighter power cable

Coverage/range

The maximum range depends on terrain condition and is obtained du-

ring use in an open space.

The only limitation to maximum possible range are environmental fac-

tors such as blockage caused by trees, buildings, or other obstructions.

Inside a car or a metallic constructions, the range can be reduced. Nor-

mally the coverage in the city, with buildings or other obstructions is

about 1 or 2 Km. In open space but with obstructions like trees, leaves

or houses the maximum possible range is about 4-6 Km. In open space,

without obstructions and in sight, like for example in mountain, the co-

verage can be more than 12 Km.

Warnings

Do not open the radio for any reason! The radio’s precision mechanics

and electronics require experience and specialized equipment; for the

same reason, the radio should under no circumstances be realigned as

it has already been calibrated for maximum performance. Unauthorized

opening of the transceiver will void the warranty.
