recharged.
On all transceivers, your dealer can set an alert tone to sound
and the LED indicator to blink red when the battery power is
low.
On K2 and K3 model transceivers, the battery power icon
displays the battery power remaining, as illustrated below.

OMPANDER
The compander is programmed only for specific (analog)
channels. If it has been programmed by your dealer,
transmitted signals are compressed before being sent and
received signals are expanded when they arrive.
• Your dealer must set the compander for both the transmit side
and the receive side in order for the compander to operate.
• On K2 and K3 model transceivers, the icon appears on the
display for when the compader activates.
This background feature allows higher clarity of signals,
avoiding excessive noise and interference. This feature is not
used on digital channels, as they are not susceptible to noise
and interference.
