  • Page 68 Notes: • (*) Due to FCC regulations these frequencies (six in total) are different from the previous Motorola Legacy Series radios. This means that if you select the RDX radio in one of these frequencies the radio will not inter-operate with an XTN radio. In order for a RDX radio to inter-operate with an XTN radio, make sure you choose any of the frequencies (21 in total) that are common for both radios.
