    1.3 Warnings and Hazards WARNING! ELECTRIC SHOCK Opening the PSR-VU-9537 could result in electric shock and may cause severe injury. WARNING! EXPOSURE TO RF Working with the PSR-VU-9537 while in operation, may expose the technician to RF electromagnetic fields that exceed FCC rules for human exposure. Visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety to learn more about the effects of exposure to RF electromagnetic fields.

Preclude indications that Home/ personal use are prohibited. Use of unauthorized antennas, cables, and/or coupling devices not conforming with ERP/EIRP is prohibited.
  • Page 10 Part 90.635 requirement Antennas must be installed in accordance with FCC 90.635. With 17 dBi gain antennas the height of the antenna above average terrain (HAAT) must not exceed 85 m. For different gain antennas refer to the relevant rules. WARRANTY This is NOT a CONSUMER device.
  • Page 11 RSS-GEN, Sec. 7.1.2– (detachable antennas) This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification number, or model number if Category II)has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
