Can't Turn It Off?

I can turn the radio on but can't turn it off unless I remove the batteries. Is there a way to turn this radio off? I have read the manual and it says no where how to turn it off. I would have thought the same button (mode) as you turn it on, but it doesn't work that way.

if you make sure the "lock" function is "off" the radios should turn off the same way you put them on, pess and hold mode/power button.

Hello jrichardspt,

Press and hold Mode/Power button to see if the radio will go off, but the manual states that the radio is always in Standby mode except when the Talk, Call or Mode/Power buttons are pressed, which means it wasn't design to be on stand by.
