CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR SELECTION
OF THE FR-140 (FAMILY RADIO)
It is one the most sophisticated and reliable two way
Family radios available.
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR FR-140 (FAMILY RADIO)
READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY
FCC WARNING
Replacement or substitution of transistors, diodes or
other parts of a unique nature, with parts other than those
recommended by the manufacturer, may cause a violation
of the technical regulations of Part 15 of FCC Rules.
FEATURES
Your FR-140 Family Radio is a portable, easy to use, two-way
radio that you can carry almost anywhere. It is skillfully constructed
to give you reliable communications for many different
applications. The FR-140 is ideal for use around the house, in
your boat, on hunting and camping trips, on the ski slopes or at
the mall.
Advanced PLL circuitry uses a new technique for generating
the required frequencies, with less dependency on crystals.
The result is much tighter frequency control and superior
reliability.
PERFORMANCE
Your transceiver will achieve its maximum operating range
when communicating with another transmitter in a flat open
area with no trees or buildings obstructing its signal. Range
may be up to two miles under such conditions. Obstacles such
as buildings, trees or mountains will tend to reduce the
transceiver’s effective range.

BATTERY INSTALLATION
Your FR-140 requires three “AA” alkaline
cells or three rechargeable “AA” nickel -
cadmium cells. Alkaline batteries will
provide the best performance from your
transciever. Remove the battery cover by
releasing the clasp at the bottom of the
unit and lifting the cover from the battery
compartment. Observe the polarity symbols
inside the battery tray when installing the
batteries.
CAUTION: Incorrect battery installation
can damage the unit.
BATTERY SAVER MODE
Your FR-140 has a unique circuit designed to dramatically
extend the life of its batteries. Ten seconds after the transmit
button has been pressed, the FR-140 will switch to battery
saver mode. This will be indicated by the flashing PS (Power
Saver) icon. The transciever will remain ready to receive any
incoming transmissions while in the battery saver mode.
Pressing any of the buttons will exit the battery saver mode.
