IMPORTANT NOTICE, FCC LICENSE REQUIRED FOR GMRS OPERATION
(Only Applicable for GMRS Radio Use in the United States)
The LXT110/80 Series operates on GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service)
frequencies which require an FCC (Federal Communications Commission)
license. You must be licensed prior to operating on channels 1 - 7 or 15 - 22,
which comprise the GMRS channels of the LXT110/80 Series. Serious penalties
could result for unlicensed use of GMRS channels, in violation of FCC rules, as
stipulated in the Communications Act's Sections 501 and 502 (amended).
You will be issued a call sign by the FCC which should be used for station
identification when operating the radio on GMRS channels. You should also
cooperate by engaging in permissible transmissions only, avoiding channel
interference with other GMRS users, and being prudent with the length of their
transmission time.
To obtain a license or ask questions about the license application, contact the
FCC at 1-888-CALL FCC or go to the FCC's website:
http://www.fcc.gov and request form 605.
Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy
Your Midland radio is designed to comply with the following national and
international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human being to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy:
- United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal
Regulations: 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J
- American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical &
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992
- Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineer (IEEE) C95. 1-1999 Edition
- National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the
United States, Report 86, 1986
- International Commission on Non-lonizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
1998
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the general population or
uncontrolled environment exposure limits, transmit no more than 50% of the time.
The radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting.
IMPORTANT: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by
MIDLAND RADIO CORP. could void your right to operate this unit. Your radio is set
up to transmit a regulated signal on an assigned frequency. It is against the law to
alter or adjust the settings inside the COMMUNICATOR to exceed those
limitations. Any adjustment to your radio must be made by qualified technicians.

CHARGING THE BATTERY
Your LXT110/80 Series is equipped for using an rechargeable NiMH
battery which can be recharged by inserting the AC adapter into the
radio charge jack. Initial charge time is 24 hours. Charge time is about
12 hours thereafter. For maximum battery life, we recommend
charging the battery when the low battery icon comes on. Remove the
radios from the charger when the charge time expires.
1. Only use our NiMH battery.
2. Do not attempt to charge alkaline batteries or any batteries
or battery packs other than the one indicated in the manual.
This may cause leakage and damage to the radio.
3. For long term storage of the radio, turn the radio OFF and
remove the batteries from the radio.
LOW BATTERY LEVEL INDICATOR
Your LXT110/80 Series has a LOW BATTERY
ICON which
will only appear on the LCD display if the battery voltage level is low.
At this point, the battery needs to be charged for at least 12hrs.

2. Press and hold the PTT button and speak in a normal voice
into the microphone. The TX icon will appear continuously on the
LCD Display while transmitting.
3. To receive a call, release the PTT button. The RX icon will appear

ABOUT RANGE
Your LXT Series radios are designed to give you maximum range
under optimum conditions.
Optimum Conditions are:
l Over water
l Open rural areas without obstructions
l Flat areas where you can see the other person
To ensure you get maximum range:
l Be sure to use fresh or fully charged batteries - low batteries will
cause low power conditions
l Be sure you are on a GMRS channel - FRS channels are
restricted by the FCC to low power
l Be sure to set your radio to use Hi power.
