charging is occurring, and charging continues at the slow rate until the 
battery is removed from the charger. Approximate charge time in this slot 
for a fully discharged battery is 20 hours (with transceiver power off if 
applicable). If transceiver power is on, this slot basically maintains the 
charge of the battery.

For best results, hold the speaker grille about 1-2 inches from your 

mouth and speak at a normal conversational level. Do not shout since it 
distorts your voice and does not increase range. Make sure that the PTT 
(push-to-talk) switch is pressed before you begin to speak and released as 
soon as the message is complete.

When approaching the limits of radio range, the other party may not 

be able to hear your transmissions and there may be an increase in back-
ground noise when messages are received. 

Even though you can hear messages, you may still be out of radio 

range. The reason for this is that the signal being received is normally 
transmitted by a repeater which usually has a much higher power level 
than is produced by your transmitter. Communication may be improved 
by moving to higher ground or away from shielding objects such as tall 
buildings or hills.
