Using Your Radio
micr oTALK ® Range
•
Y our microTALK ® radio has a range of
up to five (5) miles (8 km). Your range will
vary depending on terrain and conditions.
In flat, open country your radio will
operate at maximum range.
Buildings and foliage in the path of the
signal can reduce the range of the radio.
Dense foliage and hilly terrain will
further reduce the range of the radio.
On FRS channels 8 through 14, your radio
automatically switches to low power, which
will limit the range the radio can communicate.
Remember, you can achieve maximum
range by using Maximum Range
Extender. See page 14 for details.

Allocation and
Compatibility
Important: Please note that Cobra ® GMRS
models with 15 channels may designate
different channel numbers for the same
frequency. For example, a Cobra
® 15 channel
GMRS model would need to be tuned to
channel 11 in order to communicate with
a 22 channel GMRS tuned to channel 15.
Please refer to the chart below for channel/
frequency number compatibility.
