When the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pushed, the transceiver sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices. This device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50% (this corresponds to 50% transmission time and 50% reception time). WARNING: To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, this transmitter and its antenna must maintain a separation distance of at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your face. Speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from the face at the required separation distance. If you use a headset accessory for this radio, with the radio worn on your body, use only the Vertex Standard belt clip for this transceiver, and ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the transmitter, and may violate FCC regulations.

HX470S Page 5 1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 INTRODUCTION The HX470S is a SUBMERSIBLE miniature 5-Watt portable two way Dual Band marine transceiver. The transceiver has all allocated USA, International, or Canadian channels. It has emergency channel 16 which can be immediately selected from any channel by pressing the [16/9] key. NOAA Weather channels can also be accessed immediately by pressing the [WX] key. In addition to these functions the HX470S can transmit a Digital Selective Distress Call with Latitude/Longitude when a GPS is connected to the CD-25 Cradle Charger. Besides VHF marine transceiver operation, the HX470S provides FRS (Family Radio Service) 460 MHz (0.5 Watts) transceiver operation, receive ONLY coverage of AM, FM broadcast bands, AM aircraft bands, and MURS. The HX470S includes the following features: Memory Scanning, Priority Scanning, NOAA Weather Alert, Battery Saver, easy-to-read large LCD display, EEPROM memory back-up, Battery Life displayed on LCD, and a transmit Time-Out Timer (TOT). In the marine band, the transmitter provides a maximum of 5 Watts output, and has the selection of 2.5 Watts and 1 Watt to assist the user in ensuring maximum battery life. The optional SU-1 Barometric Pressure Sensor Unit can be installed to provide readout of the current barometric pressure. Or (not simultaneously) The optional FVP-31 Voice Scrambler can be installed to permit secure voice communications with other Standard Horizon radios with the FVP-31 or CVS2500 scramblers installed.

Please see section 4.1.4 “USING THE CD-25 CHARGER CRADLE” for details. HX470S Page 7 3. ABOUT THIS RADIO 3.1 ABOUT THE VHF MARINE BAND WARNING: The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 158 MHz with NOAA Weather stations available between 161 and 163 MHz. The marine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially “line of sight” Actual transmission range depends much more on antenna type, gain and height than on the power output of the transmitter. On a fixed mount 25W radio transmission expected distances can be greater than 15 miles, for a portable 5W radio transmission the expected distance can be greater than 5 miles in “line of sight”. The user of a Marine VHF radio is subject to severe fines if the radio is used on land. The reasoning for this is you may be near an inland waterway, or propagation anomalies may cause your transmission to be heard in a waterway. If this occurs, depending upon the marine VHF channel on which you are transmitting, you could interfere with a search and rescue case, or contribute to a collision between passing ships. For VHF Marine channel assignments refer to page 47 section 16. 3.2 ABOUT FRS (FAMILY RADIO SERVICE) FRS is a private, two-way, very short-distance voice communications service for facilitating family and group activities Areas of Operation You may operate your FRS radio in the United States and certain locations specified by the FCC [95.192]. If you want to use FRS aboard a vessel or aircraft owned or operated by a U.S. citizen or company, you will need permission from the captain of the vessel. You must share the channel with other users [95.191(b)]. There is no meaningful way to share the channel with others unless you listen before transmitting and wait until the channel is available before you transmit. To listen 462.5625 MHz 462.5875 MHz 462.6125 MHz 462.6375 MHz Page 8 FRS CHANNEL CHART 462.6625 MHz 467.5875 MHz 462.6875 MHz 10 467.6125 MHz 462.7125 MHz 11 467.6375 MHz 467.5625 MHz 12 467.6625 MHz 13 14 467.6875 MHz 467.7125 MHz ----- HX470S to the channel, you must disable any tone squelch. Also, you must at all times and on all FRS channels, give priority to emergency messages [95.193(d)]. Refer to page 23 (reception), 24 (transmitting), and 33 (CTCSS) for operation. HX470S Page 9 3.3 ABOUT RECEIVE ONLY CHANNELS and FREQUENCIES AM/FM Broadcast Bands The AM/FM bands contained within the HX470S are the same channels you use every day to listen to music, news and commentary with your car or home stereo. The AM broadcast band currently extends from 530 to 1700 kHz. Channels are spaced in even 10 kHz increments; i.e.: 530, 540, 550, ... , 1600 kHz in the United States and Canada. Elsewhere, channels are spaced in 9 kHz increments, i.e.: 531, 540, 549, etc. The FM broadcast band in the United States extends from 88 to 108 MHz. Channels are assigned at 200 kHz increments; i.e.: 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, ... , 107.9. The channels from 88.1 to 91.9 are reserved for noncommercial educational stations. Outside the United States and Canada, the boundaries and channel spacing vary. In Japan, the band starts at 76 MHz. In Western Europe, the band generally runs from 88-108 MHz, but channels can be irregularly spaced, i.e.: 101.25 MHz. AIR (Aircraft) Bands The AM VHF aeronautical communications band lies between 108.000 MHz and 136.975 MHz. This frequency spectrum can be divided into a lower and upper range. The lower range between 108.000 MHz and 118.000 MHz is primarily used for navigational aids such as the ILS Instrument Landing Systems, DME - Distance Measuring Equipment, and VOR’s - Very High Frequency Omni Range. The lower range offers very little in the way of voice communications, it does however provide someone with a working knowledge of Morse code the opportunity to identify various beacons. The upper range of the aeronautical band 118.000 MHz to 136.975 MHz is where the majority of voice communications can be monitored. Communications in the VHF band are transmitted in AM mode and most if not all compatible receivers automatically default to this mode. Frequencies within the aeronautical range are spaced in increments of 25 kHz, as such you will find transmissions at 118.000, 118.025, 118.050 MHz etc. The frequency(s) you monitor will determine the nature of traffic you will hear. As previously mentioned frequencies in the lower range of the aeroPage 10 HX470S nautical band are mostly occupied by navigational equipment and transmit non voice signals in Morse code. If you select a frequency in the upper range the air is suddenly filled with conversations between pilots and air traffic controllers, pilots and their company dispatchers, flight service stations, and ATIS broadcasts. Frequencies within the aeronautical band are designated according to their usage. Refer to the page 23 for operation. AIR (Aircraft) BAND FREQUENCY CHART Frequency Range Communications Usage 108.000 - 117.975 MHz Navigational Aids 118.000 - 121.400 MHz Control Towers 121.500 MHz Int’l Distress Frequency 121.600 - 122.900 MHz Ground & Apron Control 122.700 - 123.900 MHz UNICOM Frequencies 123.450 MHz Air to Air / Pilot chit chat 124.000 - 128.800 MHz Arrivals & Departures 128.825 - 132.000 MHz Company Operations 132.000 - 135.975 MHz Area Control Centre (Enroute) 136.000 - 136.975 MHz Shared ATC/Company Ops & DataLink MURS (MULTIPLE-USE RADIO SERVICE) Bands MURS is a private short distance voice communication service for personal or business activitys of the general public in the U.S. MURS channels can be received on this radio. The frequency and channel number is as follows. MURS CHANNEL CHART 1 151.820 MHz 2 151.880 MHz 3 151.940 MHz 4 154.570 MHz 5 154.600 MHz HX470S Page 11
