For your safety 9
■
Do not talk (transmit) on the radio more than the
rated transmit duty cycle
1
. This is important
because the radio radiates more energy when it is
transmitting than when it is receiving.
■ While you are transmitting (talking or sending
data) on the radio, you must ensure that there is
always a distance of 1 m between people and the
antenna. This is the minimum safe distance.
■ Use the radio only with Tait-approved antennas
and attachments, and make only authorised modi-
fications to the antenna otherwise you could dam-
age the radio and violate compliance regulations.

to control your exposure to it, visit the FCC website at

Frequency band reserved Interference with
electronic devices
Some electronic devices may be prone to malfunction
due to the lack of protection from RF energy that is
present when your radio is transmitting.
Examples of electronic devices that may be affected
by RF energy are:
■ aircraft electronic systems
1. This radio complies with international exposure limits for occu-
pational/controlled RF exposure environments at operating
duty factors of up to 50% talk to 50% listen.
