MAINTENANCE OF PORTABLE RADIOS

5.1 If the HT becomes wet at an operation, or has been submerged in water, remove the
battery, dry HT and battery contacts before re-attaching battery to the HT.
5.2 If the remote speaker mic becomes wet, or submerged, water trapped inside the speaker
grille and microphone can be removed by shaking the unit well.
5.3 The Field Communications Unit (FCU) shall carry a limited number of additional HTs
with fully charged batteries for emergency use. HTs for emergency use shall be returned
to the FCU as soon as they are no longer required.
5.4 Members should not remove or replace any accessories associated with the radio,
including antenna and remote speaker microphone.
5.5 When HTs are sent for repair, they should be sent complete (radio, antenna, battery, and
RSM) with defect and company number recorded on RT-2. Leather goods (cases and
straps) should not be sent unless they need repair. (See addendum 4)
5.6 No items (keys, key fobs, etc.) shall be attached directly to the HT, case, antenna or RSM
as this may cause interference with radio transmissions. Items may be attached to the HT
strap; however, they must be secured in a manner that does not allow movement or
contact with the HT, case, antenna or RSM.
