possibly overpowering transmissions. You can read more about FHSS at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-hopping_spread_spectrum.
One consequence of the frequency hopping is if you listen to any of the
frequencies in the hop table with a scanner (I use and recommend the Yaesu
FT60 ) you will hear broken squelch on all of the frequencies listed in the
channel table because the radio is using all of the frequencies, hopping from
channel to channel.

what the radios sound like on a scanner.
Here is a copy of the starting frequency table from the radio user’s guide:

Changing the initial frequency for two RTK-pairs operating nearby each other
allows them to NOT interfere with each other.
Debugging the PM3 Radio Link
The ProMark 3 receivers can be a bit challenging if the radios don’t work.
There are not many things you can do to verify the link. The green LED’s can be
very difficult to see outdoors.
Luckily, you can fully test the radio power and serial connections by
running the ‘Utilities: Configure Radio’ tool. If the tool reports ‘North American
Radio Detected’ then you can be sure the radios are working.
