![2/18 FCC License required This Transceiver is intended for use in the operation of commercial activities. The Federal Communications commission (FCC) requires you to be licensed before you operate this transceiver. Unless you are already licensed to operate on one of the preset frequencies, you must apply for a frequency through the PCIA (Personal Communication Industry Association), a non-profit organization that assigns frequencies nationwide to help prevent conflicts between different businesses using transceivers in the same area. For more information about getting a license, contact the PCIA at 800-759-0300, extension 3068 (in Virginia 703-739-0300, extension 3068) For other questions concerning the license application, contact the FCC at 717-337-1212, or wirte: FCC P.O.Box 1040 Gettysburg, PA 17325 For the latest FCC application form and instructions, call the FCC’s fax-on-demand service at 1-202-418-0177 from a fax machine and request one or more of the following documents: All forms and instructions ……………………000600 Form 600 instructions only……………………006001 Main Form 600 only……………………………006002 Form 600 schedules only………………………006003 If you do not have a fax machine, you can call the Government Forms Distribution Center at 1-800-418-FORM and request that the form and instructions be mailed to you. FCC Part 95 Rules You must be familiar with Part 95 of FCC Rules before you operate your transceiver. The operation instructions in this manual conform to Part 95, but do not cover all items in Part 95. Overall, Part 95 states that: ! You must have a valid license before you use the transceiver. ! As licensee, you are responsible for proper operation of all transceivers operating under your license’s authority. ! You can let unlicensed persons operate transmitter, as long as you take precautions to prevent unauthorized transmissions. ! You must use this transceiver only for commercial use of your business, and only when other commercial channels (such as the telephone) are either not available or](https://usermanual.wiki/TTI-Tech/GMRS-7000.CRN-22241-Revised-RF-exposure-information-in-user-manual/User-Guide-231810-Page-2.png)
![3/18 not practical. ! You must always yield the operating frequency to communications that involve the safety of life or property. ! You must take reasonable precautions to prevent harmful interference to other services operating on the same frequency. ! You must not transmit program material of any kind used in connection with commercial broadcasting. ! You must not provide a service that is normally handles by telephone or telegraph unless such broadcasts involve the safety of life and property or in emergencies such as an earthquake, hurricane, flood or a similar disaster where normal communications channels are disrupted. ! During each transmissions or exchange of transmissions, you must identify your station with the call sign issued to you by the FCC, or once each 15 minutes during periods of continuous operation. ! You must keep a written record of any maintenance or modifications made to the transceiver, and you must make this record available for inspection upon demand by the FCC. Violating any of the provisions of Part 95 can result in fines and/or confiscation of equipment. Your transceiver might cause TV or Radio interference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your transceiver is causing the interference, turn off your transceiver. If the interference goes away, your transceiver us causing it. Try to eliminate the interference by: ! Moving your transceiver away from the receiver ! Contacting your local authorized dealers for help If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your transceiver. Before you operate the transceiver, you must obtain your license. It is illegal to transmit without the appropriate license, which you can get by submitting a completed FCC Form 600 to the FCC (or through the PCIA). Furthermore, your are required to understand Part 95 of the FCC Rules and Regulations prior to operating your transceiver. It is the user’s responsibility to see that this unit is operating at all times in accordance with the FCC Rules and Regulations.](https://usermanual.wiki/TTI-Tech/GMRS-7000.CRN-22241-Revised-RF-exposure-information-in-user-manual/User-Guide-231810-Page-3.png)
![4/18 Safety Information Your Handheld Radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as “ Occupational Use Only”, meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment. This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.” In addition, your Handheld radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans: • FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 01-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields. • American National Standards Institute (ANSI) (C95.1 1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. • American National Standards Institute (C95.3 1999), IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurements of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields — RF and Microwave. To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines: DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with the radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio. For body worn operation, this handheld radio has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the TTI or authorized OEM dealers accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guideline. To provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) from your mouth. USE ONLY authorized accessories (speaker/microphones, handstraps, etc.) with your radio. Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The information listed above provides the user with the information needed to make him or her aware of RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC RF exposure limits of the radio.](https://usermanual.wiki/TTI-Tech/GMRS-7000.CRN-22241-Revised-RF-exposure-information-in-user-manual/User-Guide-231810-Page-4.png)
