FCC License Required

Before you operate the transceiver, the FCC (Federal Communications

Commission) requires that you:

• Obtain a license, which you can get by submitting a completed

FCC Form 600 to the FCC (or through the PCIA (Personal

Communication Industry Association) if you do not already qualify for the supplied frequency).

• Understand Part 90 of the FCC

Rules and Regulations. It is the user’s responsibility to see that this unit is operating at all times in accordance with the FCC

Rules and Regulations.

• Apply for a frequency through the PCIA unless you are already qualified to operate on the supplied frequency. The PCIA is 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).
