I haven't used my Bellsouth model 1008 two way radios for a long time....I just replace the batteries and turned them on but they are not in sink with eachother. How do I get them to transmit and receive with each other?
I did have both radios on the same channel.....they still don't talk to each other.....any other solutions? I did have both radios on the same channel.....they still don't talk to each other.....any other solutions?

Sanity check. Make sure the radios are on the same channel. They shouldn't have to be "sync'd" The channel freqs are all hard set and can't be changed to my knowledge.

In addition to the Channel, we also call the Frequency, there are sub tones on each channel. You must have the channel and sub tone match in order to "hear" each other. I found a manual:

First you have to remove the belt clip from the bacside of the radio,. Then there is a small clip at the botom of the radio that you snap open in order to remove the back of the radio where the batteries are at.Hope that this hlps
The Bellsouth FRS radios were actually made by a company called US Electronics. Their branding agreement with Bellsouth ended in 2005 but they are continuing to sell radios that are very similiar to the ones they made under the Bellsouth name. These radios are marketed under the name Xact.
Your best bet to locate a manual for the Bellsouth 1061 radio is going to be contacting Xact. Their website is located at: http://www.xactcommunication.com.
I have a model 1018 bellsouth 2-way. Are you talking about the tone that lets the other person know it's okay to talk? If so, turn the unit on---press the (fun) function button until you see the RGB abbreviation flashing. ***about three times on mine***** You should also see displayed ---ON---. Using the channel changing button---press it once. The ON should change to OFF.
