ClearLink 905 Owner's Manual

ClearLink 905 Owners Manual
Introduction.
Thank you for purchasing ClearLink Communications Family Service Radios.
ClearLink Communications is dedicated to innovation and excellence in wireless
communications, especially in the emerging area of "Family Radios" and related products.
"Family Radio Service."
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) introduced "Family Radio
Service" in 1997 to provide the general public with broader access to short range, two way voice
communication.
To prevent interference with military and commercial radio systems, Family
Radio Service is limited to a maximum of 14 channels which operate on specific FCC assigned frequencies.
In addition, output power is limited to 500 mw. While the normal operating range is approximately one mile,
under ideal conditions Family Radios will operate within a range of up to two miles.
All Family Radios, including the ClearLink 905, are programmed to transmit and receive regulated signals
only on FCC assigned frequencies. Any attempt to modify either these signals or frequencies is in violation of
FCC regulations and may cause permanent damage to the radio.
Operation is further subject to the following conditions as established bythe FCC:
1. Family Service Radios may not be used to cause harmful interference with
other radios;
2. Individuals operating Family Service Radios must acknowledge that these
radios may be subject to occasional interference from military and commercial systems.
We offer several models of Family Service Radios, including the ClearLink
905.
The ClearLink 905 operates on the 14 FCC assigned channels. Each channel has 38 CTCSS (Continuous
Tone Coded Squelch System) often referred to as Privacy Codes for a potential of 532 private conversations.
This manual provides operating instructions, specifications and other important information pertaining to the
ClearLink 905.
