VX-8GE OPERATING MANUAL20OPERATION1) The VX-8GE is smart! You can set up Low power on one band (like UHF),while leaving VHF on High power, and the radio will remember the differentsettings on each band. And whenyou store memories, you can store High andLow power settings separately in eachmemory, so you don’t waste battery powerwhen using very close-in repeaters!2) When you are operating on one of the Lowpower settings, you can press the key, then press the PTT switch, to cause the VX-8GE to transmit (temporarily) on High power. After one transmission, the power levelwill revert to the previously-selected Low power setting.TRANSMISSIONFNB-101LI/-102LIor EXT DC (7.4 V)HI: 5.0 W,L3: 2.5 W,L2: 1.0 W,L1: 0.05 WTRANSMIT POWERFBA-39(w/Fresh Batteries)L2: 1.0 W,L1: 0.05 W
