NOTES FOR GOOD COMMUNICATION
1 . The FR1438-2 14 channels are shared on a ‘take turns’ basis. This means
other groups may be talking on any of the channels. A common code of
ethics/courtesy is to switch to another vacant channel and not to attempt to
talk over someone who is already using the channel you first selected.
2. The FR1438-2 has been designed to maximize performance and improve
transmission range in the field. To avoid interference, it is recommended that
you do not use the units closer than 5 feet apart.
3. For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about 2-3 inches from
the microphone (9) and speak slowly in a normal voice.
