It is recommended that you do not
use your radios closer than 1.5
metres apart to avoid interference.
Your radios have a range of up to
3km. However, the range is

To obtain the maximum range,
use in clear line of site situations.
Obstructions between the radios
(e.g. buildings) will greatly reduce
the range achieved.
