ICENSING
Except for the five (5) MURS frequencies listed on page 13, the FCC requires the owners of radios operating on these frequencies to obtain a
station license before using them.
The station licensee is responsible for ensuring that transmitter power, frequency and deviation are within the limits specified by the station license.
The station licensee is also responsible for proper operation and maintenance of the radio equipment. This includes checking the transmitter
frequency and deviation periodically, using appropriate methods.
To get an FCC license for VHF or UHF frequencies, submit FCC application Form 601. Your Ritron dealer can help you with this process.

AFETY TANDARDS
The FCC (with its action in General Docket 79-144, March 13, 1985) has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment. Ritron observes these guidelines and recommends that you do also:
• DO NOT hold the radio so that the antenna is very close to or touching exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while
transmitting. Keep the radio vertical, eight inches away while talking into the front panel.
• DO NOT press the Push-To-Talk except when you intend to transmit.
• DO NOT operate radio equipment near electrical blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
• DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment that contains a transmitting device.
• Repair of Ritron products should be performed only by Ritron authorized personnel.
S
ERVICE
Federal law prohibits you from making any internal adjustments to the transmitter, and / or from changing transmit frequencies unless you are
specifically designated by the licensee.
If your radio equipment fails to operate properly, or you wish to have the radio programmed, contact your local authorized dealer or Ritron.
