Changing Channels Press the MENU button (11) once, the current channel number flashes on the display. Press the button (4) or button (7) to change the channel . Press the PTT button to (15) confirm and return to stand-by mode. Note: If no button is pressed within 15 seconds during setting, the unit will return to standby . 7 6.CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System) Licence free radios operating on the 400~470 MHZ frequency band, like the Twintalker, have 8/20/22 available radio channels. If there are many radios users in your neighborhood, there is a chance that some of these users are operating on the same radio channel. To prevent that you receive signals from other users, sub-channels have been integrated. Two radios only be able to communicate with each other not only on the same channel but also set to the same sub-channels. There is the sub-channels:continuous tone squelch system(CTCSS) When using CTCSS, a low frequency tone(67-250Hz)will be transmitted along with the voice signal. There are 99 available tons to choose. Note: To disable CTCSS, select code "0F for CTCSS in the menu. When pressing PTT button to confirm. 7.CTCSS Press the MENU-button (11) twice: The current CTCSS code flashes on the display Press the -button (4) or the -button (7) to change to another code.

The device operates on GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) frequencies, which require an FCC (Federal Communications Commission) license. You must be licensed prior to transmitting on all channels, which comprise of GMRS channels. Serious penalties could result for unlicensed use of GMRS channels, in violation of FCC rules, as stipulated in the Communications Act's Sections 501 and 502 (amended). You will be issued a call sign by the FCC, which should be used for station identification when operating the radio on GMRS channels. You should also cooperate by engaging in permissible transmissions only, avoiding channel interference with other GMRS users, and being prudent with the length of their transmission time. To obtain a license or ask questions about the license application, contact the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC or go to the FCC's website:
