Boosting the transmission power
Inmostsituations,the1Watttransmissionpowerisallyouneed.Ifyoundyourselffaraway
from other stations and have trouble getting a response, you may need to boost the transmis-
sion power from 1 Watt to 25 Watts:
1. Select the channel you want to transmit on.
2. Push and hold ENT-1W/25W for two seconds. The display shows “25 Watts” in the up-
per left hand corner.
3. The transmit power remains at 25 Watts until you change the setting back. Push and
hold ENT-1W/25W for two seconds. The display shows “1 Watt”.
NOTE: Don’t forget to change the transmission setting back to 1 Watt when you
move closer to other stations.
NOTE: By default, when you change to channel 16, the radio automatically
boosts the power to 25 Watts. Be sure to change the power back to 1 Watt if
you are not making an emergency transmission.
Somechannels(forexample,channels13and67)limitthepoweroftransmissionto1Watt
so that there is less interference between boaters attempting to use the channel at the same
time. If you switch to one of these channels, the radio changes back to 1 Watt automatically.
See the channel lists beginning on page 40 for a list of power-restricted channels.
