BTX-128 CTCSS/VHF Business Band Transceiver
(190-1217) Operation Faxback Doc. # 51190
Note: You can only communicate with another transceiver that is set to
the same CTCSS code as your transceiver.
1. Turn the volume control clockwise until it clicks to turn on the
transceiver. The transceiver beeps and the transmit light on top of
the transceiver flashes.
2. While pressing MONITOR, rotate the volume control to a comfortable
listening level.
3. To transmit, hold down PUSH TO TALK. Then hold the transceiver about
3 inches from your mouth and speak slowly in a normal voice. The
transmit light on top of the transceiver turns on.
Release PUSH TO TALK when you finish your transmission.
Note: If you connected an external speaker/microphone to the
transceiver, you do not have to lift the transceiver to your
mouth or press PUSH TO TALK each time you transmit. To
transmit, simply speak into the microphone.
4. To turn off the transceiver, turn the volume control counterclockwise
until it clicks.
Operational Hints
Your transceiver's range varies depending on factors such as position,
terrain, and battery condition. Buildings absorb transmitted signals and,
if they contain metal, might completely block the signals. Trees and
heavy cloud formations have a similar effect, though not as severe. If
you are near a lake or the ocean, you might get excellent range.
To ensure maximum range, operate the transceiver with the battery pack
fully charged. As the voltage decreases, the range decreases.
