PERSONAL BUDDY #
Each CHATNOW Communicator has its own private, personal, 10-digit buddy
ID number. To find out what yours is, scroll to “PERSONAL” in the Main Menu
and then “MY BUDDY #.” Your personal buddy number will appear. Keep this
handy and exchange your number with your friends so that you can receive
calls and call friends directly.
SELECTING A CHANNEL
Your CHATNOW Communicator has 14 channels
shared on a “take-turns” basis. Everyone you’re
communicating with has to be on the same
channel. (So pick a number that you’ll remember!)
COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
FRS 2-WAY RADIOS
Your CHATNOW Communicator may also be
compatible with some other FRS [Family Radio
Service] 2-way radios (walkie talkies) for Chat
Mode only. To use your CHATNOW communicator with another FRS 2-way
radio simply make sure both units are set to the same channel (1 –14). The other
FRS-2 radio’s Interference Eliminator Code must be set to “0.”
CHAT ZONE COMMUNICATION RANGE
Your CHATNOW Communicator has a range of up to 2 miles. This is called
the CHAT ZONE. This means you can chat, call, and text message your
friends from up to 2 miles away based on an unobstructed line of sight, terrain
and conditions. Make sure to stay within the CHAT ZONE so your calls and
messages go through!
