Well, you cant talk with someone else on your two-way radio unless you ARE BOTH on the same channel and using the same interference eliminator code. The interference eliminator codes help minimize interference by providing you with a choice of code combinations. The channel is the radio frequency wave your radio uses to transmit. The interference eliminator code filters out static, noise, and unwanted messages. Refer to the Frequency and Code Charts beginning on page 33 for channel and code choices. Your T6400 two-way radio has 22 channels:

Channel Numbers Description Transmit Power Channels 1-7 Channels 8-14 Channels 15-22 GMRS 1-7 also FRS 1-7 1 watt FRS 8-14 GMRS 8-15 0.5 watt 1 watt g n i l k a T 14 I YYour T6400 is compatible with both General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) and Family Radio Service (FRS) channels. You can talk to FRS radios on channels 1-

R 14. Remember that FRS radios operate at 0.5 watt of transmit power. On channels 1-7, the T6400 operates at 1 watt. In certain situations when talking to FRS radios A on channels 1-7, it is possible that they will be able to hear you, but you will not be able to hear them. This is because you are transmitting with more power (1 watt) than the FRS radio (0.5 watt). If this occurs, you must move closer to the other N person to have clear, two-way communication.
