Could one of the radios be left in the on position while in the charging cradle? Would like to use it as a base station in VOX mode

Yes you can but I will not ever buy Midland again. I bought a set two different times and I had to return both for working models. If you have to buy Midland the issue is the connectors to the rechargeable battery inside get bent while using and when it quits working you have to open them up and expand the tabs to hit the battery connectors. I bought 2 sets a year apart and the base is not interchangeable. They look the same...exactly. I use them at the lake and get strong reception between my house and the boat up to about 2 miles.

I guess the battery might be out of order. My MU350R 2-way radio is enough over night for charging. I have two sets which are really excellent for long lasting. Thanks.

yeah that's EXACTLY the problem. it's unclear if the headphones are turned on automatically and same for the base station. Has these crazy flashing light codes. I turn the phones off manually when I'm done, but i'm pretty sure they turn themselves off in the cradle. Then when I start to use them I manually turn them on and make certain the cradle is transmitting. I bet there's a more suave process, but I haven't the patience to play with it.

The desktop charger which they say goes with the radio DOES NOT. No answers yet as to why. I presently plug in the pig tail connectors that came with the radio and they work well. Batteries stay in the radio. Hope this helps

Make sure the frequency channels and vox are programmed the same. Also, make sure you remove the thin plastic off the battery terminal. I initially had some problems but now working great

Not exactly. There is a light on the bottom of the base which indicates when the headphones are out of the cradle and turned on.

The cradle will hold the tablet in portrait mode, but it will NOT charge in that position. The charging contacts are on the lower left edge, below the power and volume controls. The charging contacts on the cradle are only on the lower left of the frame.

You can place the headphone on the transmitter station in two ways -- with the earphone controls pointing forward or pointing backward. With my Auvio wireless, if I replace the earphones with the controls pointing backwards, the charging light does not change. If the controls are forward the charging light does change. If the charging light does not light, push the button on the charging station.

You cannot, at least not with the cradle I have. I am also looking for a compatible external charger.

I've always kept both cans on the band while charging, but it's a possibility only one of the cans need charging since that's the one that houses the Bluetooth radio and battery. That one can has a charging port in which you plug a micro usb - usb cable into.

by the d batteries, but the rechargeable ones in the panels are cheap and mine died, so they have to be on the base station.

I am sorry, but I have not did this task but give me a few days and I will put my radio on ...charge my unit and let play until it runs down and give you an answer back on this, I an tell you this much ..my old crank emergency radio lasted for almost three days before I had to recharge that battery. I hope I helped. if you are as happy as I am with my Ambient you will not be disappointed with it's performance. jim

I have never tried to use the radio in this manner. Better try it before relying on it some morning!

Yes if you remove the battery there is a small clear plastic piece that is blocking the battery from the radio. Once you remove it your radio will be good to go!

Yes there is a plastic cradle you install on the right side to the rear of the volume knob. Not shown in picture.

It's a good radio however it may not be what they want. Currently no DC charger, does not take AA / AAA batteries so keeping them powered up in remote locations would be challenging.

There is a separate cradle for each speaker to charge on, I have not tried using them while they are charging.
