INTRODUCTION

RadioShack welcomes you to the next gener-

ation of personal communication — the Fam-

ily Radio Service (FRS). FRS is a new

license-free, two-way, short-range voice ra-

dio service that lets families and groups keep

in touch with each other on specific reserved

channels.

Your RadioShack Sports FRS 2-Way Radio

is a lightweight, palm-sized radio that you can

carry almost anywhere and use to talk with

another person who has an FRS radio set to

the same frequency as your radio. Your ra-

dio’s quiet code feature is like having a sub-

channel within a channel, giving you greater

communication flexibility.

Your radio has 14 channels and 19 different

quiet codes. If someone else is using the

channel you selected and you do not want to

hear that person, select another channel or

use the quiet feature (see “Using Quiet

Codes” on Page 9). You can talk with other

FRS radio users whose radios are tuned to

the same channel and quiet code as yours.

Your radio has

auto-squelch

, which means

you will not hear anything on a channel un-

less someone is transmitting nearby on the

same channel. You can turn off auto-squelch

to hear weaker, distant transmissions (see

“Auto-Squelch” on Page 11).

PREPARATION

Note: Your radio’s display is protected during

shipment by a piece of film. Peel off this film

before you use the radio.

INSTALLING BATTERIES

Your radio requires three AAA batteries (not

supplied) for power. For the best perfor-

mance and longest life, we recommend alka-

line batteries, or you can use nickel-cadmium

(Ni-Cd) or nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) re-

chargeable batteries and charge them in the

radio with an optional AC adapter. Both types

of batteries are available from your local Ra-

dioShack store.

Before using the radio with rechargeable bat-

teries, you must charge the batteries for a

minimum of 12-16 hours, using an adapter

(not supplied). See “Charging Rechargeable

Batteries” on Page 4.

Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly

and properly. Do not burn or bury them.

Cautions:

• Use only fresh batteries of the required

size and recommended type.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, differ-

ent types of batteries (standard, alkaline,

or rechargeable), or rechargeable batter-

ies of different capacities.

• If you do not plan to use the radio for a

month or longer, remove the batteries.

Batteries can leak chemicals that can

destroy electronic parts.

21-1822.fm Page 3 Friday, March 10, 2000 10:39 AM

1. Rotate OFF toward OFF until it

clicks to turn off the radio, then pull down

the latch on the bottom of the radio to re-

move the battery compartment cover.

2. Use a pointed object such as a pen to

set AL/NI inside the compartment to AL

(for alkaline batteries) or NI (for re-

chargeable batteries).

Warning: Never set AL/NI to NI if you

use non-rechargeable batteries. Non-re-

chargeable batteries can get hot or ex-

plode if you try to recharge them.

3. Install the batteries inside the battery

compartment, matching the polarity sym-

bols (+ and –) marked inside the com-

partment. Then replace the battery

compartment cover.

The radio’s range decreases as battery pow-

er decreases. To ensure maximum range,

keep fresh batteries in the radio.

If TX/BATT lights when you are not holding

down PTT, replace or recharge the batteries.

Charging Rechargeable

Batteries

You can charge rechargeable batteries in the

radio using either a 9V, 300 mA AC adapter

or a DC cigarette-lighter adapter and a size H

Adaptaplug®adapter (not supplied). All are

available at your local RadioShack store.

It takes between 12 and 16 hours to recharge

rechargeable batteries that are fully dis-

charged. It takes about 14 hours to fully

21-1822.fm Page 4 Friday, March 10, 2000 10:39 AM

charge 550mAH Ni-MH batteries in your ra-

dio. For best battery life, do not overcharge.

Warning: Do not charge non-rechargeable

batteries in the radio. Non-rechargeable bat-

teries can get hot and explode if you try to re-

charge them.

Cautions:

You must use a Class 2 power

source that supplies 9V DC

and delivers 300 mA. Its center

tip must be set to positive and its plug

must fit the radio's CHG jack. Using an

adapter that does not meet these specifi-

cations could damage the radio or the

adapter.

• Always connect the adapter to the radio

before you connect it to an external pow-

er source (such as an AC outlet or a ve-

hicle cigarette-lighter socket). When you

finish, disconnect the adapter from the

external power source before you dis-

connect it from the radio.

• Do not charge rechargeable batteries

longer than 12 to 16 hours.

Note: Ni-CD batteries and other batteries of

lower capacity will fully charge faster, but pro-

vide less operating time

1. Rotate OFF toward OFF until it

clicks to turn off the radio, then pull down

the latch on the bottom of the radio to re-

move the battery compartment cover.

2. Use a pointed object such as a pen to

set AL/NI to NI.

21-1822.fm Page 5 Friday, March 10, 2000 10:39 AM

3. Install the rechargeable batteries inside

the battery compartment, matching the

polarity symbols (+ and –) marked inside

the compartment. Then replace the bat-

tery compartment cover.

4. Attach the Adaptaplug adapter to the

adapter so the tip reads positive (+).

5. Connect the other end of the adapter to

a standard AC outlet or, if you are using

a DC adapter, attach the other end to a

vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket.

Important: This radio can

use Ni-Cd rechargeable bat-

teries. At the end of a Ni-Cd

battery's useful life, it must

be recycled or disposed of

properly. Contact your local,

county, or state hazardous

waste management authorities for informa-

tion on recycling or disposal programs in your

area or call 1-800-843-7422. Some options

that might be available are: municipal curb-

side collection, drop-off boxes at retailers

such as your local RadioShack store, recy-

cling collection centers, and mail-back pro-

grams.

CONNECTING AN

OPTIONAL MICROPHONE/

SPEAKER

To use the radio privately, connect an option-

al headset with microphone or a microphone

and earphone communication headset (avail-

able at your local RadioShack store) to the

SPK and MIC jacks.

21-1822.fm Page 6 Friday, March 10, 2000 10:39 AM

This connection automatically disconnects

the internal speaker and the PTT (push to

talk) button.

Or, you can connect a mono earphone (avail-

able at your local RadioShack store) into the

SPK jack and use the PTT button as usual.

USING THE BELT CLIP

To use the supplied belt

clip, slide it down onto the

tab at the back of the radio

until it clicks. To remove

the clip,pull up on the mid-

dle tab of the clip and slide

the clip upward.

USING A HAND STRAP

To attach an optional

hand strap to the ra-

dio, thread the hand

strap’s small loop

through the holes next

to PTT. You might

need to use a small

screwdriver or a

straightened paper clip to do this. Then pull

the strap’s large loop through the small loop.

To attach an optional pager chain to the ra-

dio, simply snap the chain’s small loop into

one of the holes next to PTT.

phone. TX lights. Release PTT when you fin-

ish speaking.

CALL — hold down to send a paging tone or

quiet code to all radios tuned to the same fre-

quency.

squelch (see “Auto-Squelch” on Page 11). To

turn auto-squelch back on, release MON.

MODE — hold down then turn on the radio to

set the quiet code, press to turn on or off the

quiet feature (see “Using Quiet Codes” on

Page 9), and hold down until Lappears to

sage, press CALL, or when the batteries are

low.

L—appears when you lock and .

QUIET —lights when the quiet mode (CTC-

SS) is set and flashes while you are selecting

the quiet (CTCSS) code.

USING QUIET CODES

You can set the radio with a Continuous Tone

Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) quiet code

and screen out unwanted conversations,

even from someone transmitting nearby on

the same channel. When a quiet code is set,

the radio sends the code every time PTT or

CALL is pressed and the radio only responds

to signals that have the same code. Radios

you plan to use together must be set to the

same code. This radio has these quiet (CTC-

SS) codes.

To set the radio to use the quiet feature and

set a quiet code:

1. Hold down MODE then rotate OFF

away from OFF to turn on the radio. The

QUIET indicator flashes.

2. While the QUIET indicator flashes, re-

peatedly press or to select the qui-

et code, then press MODE again. The

QUIET indicator stays lit and the quiet
