Selecting Output Power
It’s wise, and required by law, to select the lowest power
that allows reliable communication. If operating from
battery power, lower transmit power will give you more
operating time before a charge is necessary. Reducing
power lowers the risk of interfering with others on the
band.
Press
[LOW]
to select the transmit power you require.
Each time you press
[LOW]
, the transmit power is
changed as shown below.

TRANSMITTING
1 When ready to begin transmitting, press and hold Mic
[PTT] and speak in a normal tone of voice.
"ON AIR" and the RF power meter appear.
Speaking too close to the microphone, or too loudly, may
increase distortion and reduce intelligibility of your signal
at the receiving station.
The RF power meter shows the relative transmit output
power.
2 When you finish speaking, release Mic [PTT].
CAUTION:
DO NOT TRANSMIT WITH HIGH OUTPUT POWER FOR
EXTENDED PERIODS. THE TRANSCEIVER MAY OVERHEAT
AND MALFUNCTION.
CONTINUOUS TRANSMISSIONS CAUSE THE RADIATOR TO
OVERHEAT. NEVER TOUCH THE RADIATOR IN SUCH A
SITUATION.
Note: When the transceiver overheats because of ambient high
temperature or continuous transmissions, the protective circuit may
function to lower transmit output power.
