INTRODUCTION
Family Radio Service (FRS) is the newest generation
in personal two-way communications. No license is
required for FRS radio operation - the radios provide
communication on any of the 14 license-free UHF
channels dedicated to such use.
The TK14 is a lightweight, compact two-way radio that
can be used for communicating with family or friends
at parks, shopping malls, sporting events, concerts -
any indoor or outdoor activity.
Providing up to two mile range, the TK14 is compatible
with other two-way radios using the FRS frequency
band (462.5625 MHz to 467.7125 MHz). Additional
features include:
•Simple push-to-talk operation on 14 UHF Channels.
•38 PrivateTalk Codes - receive only messages
meant for you. The radio's CTCSS (Continuous
Tone Coded Squelch System) filters out other
messages on the channel.
•Channel scan monitors radio activity on all
channels.
•A multi-functional backlit display indicates the
current channel, and displays icons for volume
settings, battery power level, transmit and receive
modes, call function and mode lock. INTRO

INTRODUCTION, Continued
•Battery save circuitry allows radio to communicate
up to 30 hours from 4 "AAA" alkaline, rechargeable
Ni-Cad batteries or TruTalk rechargeable NiMH
battery packs.
Note: The maximum transmission range will vary
depending on terrain and environment of use. Range
will be greater in open fields, while the range is shorter
within and around buildings or large structures.
MAINTENANCE
Your TK14 radio is designed to be maintenance free.
To keep your radio in good working condition:
•Clean external surfaces with a clean cloth dampened
in a solution of dishwasher detergent diluted in
water. Apply the solution sparingly to avoid any
moisture leaking into cracks and crevices. Do not
submerge the radio. Use a non-metallic brush to
dislodge stubborn particles, if necessary. Dry the
surface thoroughly with a soft, lint free cloth
•DO NOT use solvents or spirits for cleaning - they
may permanently damage the housing
•Clean the radio battery contacts with a lint free cloth
to remove dirt, grease, or other foreign material that
may impede good electrical contact.
