Squelch knob Adjusts the level at which the radio squelches or suppresses weak radio signals. To filter out weaker signals and background noise, turn the knob clockwise to increase the squelch level. To decrease the squelch level so you can hear weaker radio signals, turn the knob counter-clockwise. Volume Control Powers on the radio and adjusts the volume. Microphone Speak into the microphone when transmitting. Speaker Jack Connects to an external speaker (not includerd). The internal speaker is disabled. 10 Microphone Jack Connects to an external microphone (not included). 11 13.8 V DC External Power Jack Provides power to the unit. you can use external power sources such as a car battery to power the unit and to recharge the Ni-Cd rechargeable batteries. 12 Transmit Power Switch (HI/LOW) Select a power output level for transmission. NOTE: FCC rules reserve Channel 9 for motorist assistance and other emergency communications. Channel 9 should only be used in situations where there is immediate danger to the safety of individuals or the protection of property. Make sure you have read and understood part 95 of the FCC rules and regulations before using the transmitter. SET UP Install Antenna Install the included rubber antenna onto the radio. The PRO401HH can also use any type of 50 Ω / 27 MHz band antenna. Although a telescoping antenna might provide better transmission and receiving, it is not as compact or easy to use as the antenna included in the package. Connecting to Power Your PRO401HH can operate on DC power or batteries. DC Power Plug the DC power coverter into the PRO401HH. Plut the other end into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter/DC power conversion plug. The red power LED is steady on when the unit is connected to external power (not batteries). WARNING! DO NOT connect this equipment to a power supply if you are not absolutely certain of the grounding type! Battery Power You can use either 9 non-rechargeable alkaline batteries or 9 rechargeable NiCD batteries with this unit. Open battery cover. Set the internal switch to match the battery type you are using (either alkaline or rechargeable (Ni-CD) batteries. Insert the 9 batteries. Close battery cover. The red power LED is steady on. Low Power Indication The red LED blinks when battery power is low. Replace/recharge the batteries or connect the radio to a power source. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Basic operation Turning the radio on Turning the radio off Selecting a channel Changing the volume Transmitting Turn the Volume knob clockwise until it clicks and the display backlight comes on.
