[TheList] Pager

Hi Sam,

How does the audio sound outputting straight from your radio? You'll want
to make sure you're getting a nice clean signal - Static or pops will throw
the decoder off.

Personally I like setting my PCs input to 100% and my radios output to
nearly silent, and slowly up it's output volume bit by bit to see what the
results like. You can sometimes have to wait a few minutes to see the
effect - It depends how many pages are being sent over the network.

Best of luck,
Tariq
