Replace graphic 17 Operating Rules and Regulations Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). As an operator of two-way radio equipment, you must be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to your particular type of radio operation. Following these rules will help eliminate confusion and will assure the most efficient use of existing radio channels. This will provide a smooth operating radio network. When using the radio, remember these rules: 1. It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency message. As the radio operates in much the same way as a telephone "party line", always listen and/or observe the absence of the “BSY” display to make sure that the line is clear before sending any messages. If someone is sending an emergency message, such as reporting a fire or asking for help in an accident, KEEP OFF THE AIR! Emergency calls have priority over all other messages. 2. Use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal Law. 3. It is against the law to send false call letters or a false distress or emergency message. 18 4. The FCC requires that conversations be brief and confined to business. To save time, use coded messages whenever possible. 5. Using the radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only those messages essential for the business operation. 6. It is against the Federal law to repeat or otherwise make known anything overheard on the radio. Conversations between others sharing your channel must be regarded as confidential. Intrinsically Safe Usage Selected portable radios with appropriate factory installed Options are certified as Intrinsically Safe by the Factory Mutual Research Corporation. TBD 19 Operating Tips The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios and should be avoided whenever possible. • • Operating the radio in low terrain areas or while under power lines or bridges. Operating the radio inside of a vehicle or inside metal or steel framed building unless using an outside antenna. 20 NOTES 21 NOTES 22 23
