ditions that require a reliable device.

Programming software (optional)

Thanks to Midland Programming software PRG-G15, it is possible to

increase the performance of your radio or to reduce its functionality

by enabling or disabling some features (CTCSS, TOT, VOX, ROGER BEEP,

SQUELCH, VOICE...)

nual.

Any attempt to change frequencies or output power of the radio invali-

dates the approval.

Coverage/Range

The maximum range depends on terrain condition and is obtained du-

ring use in an open space.

The only limitation to maximum possible range are environmental fac-

tors such as blockage caused by trees, buildings or other obstructions.

Inside a car or a metallic construction, the range can be reduced. Normal-

ly the coverage in the city, with buildings or other obstructions is about 1

or 2 Km. In open space but with obstructions like trees, leaves or houses

the maximum possible range is about 4-6 Km. In open space, without

obstructions and in sight, like for example in mountain, the coverage can

be more than 12 Km.

Battery recharge

G18 is equipped for using a 7,4V Li-ion rechargeable battery pack, which

can be recharged by connecting the socket of the AC/DC wall adaptor to

a mains power socket and inserting the jack of the wall adaptor into the

desktop charger plug.

It takes 4 hours to fully recharge the radio.

The led of the desktop charger indicates the status of the recharge:

Red = charging,

Green = full charge

For maximum battery life, we recommend you to charge the battery pack

when the G18 is oﬀ and the battery pack is fully discharged.

! Using a diﬀerent battery charger other than the one speciﬁed can

cause damage to your device or may even cause explosions and per-

sonal injuries.

The Battery power saving feature enables a reduction in consumption of up

to 50% and saves the battery life. If it has been set, it automatically activates

when the transceiver does not receive any signal for more than 5 seconds.

Power saving can be disabled only through the Programming software.
