IMPORTANT NOTICE: FCC LICENSE REQUIRED

••

This two-way radio operates on GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) frequencies
which require an FCC (Federal Communications Commission) license. A user must
be licensed prior to operating on Channels 1 through 7 on high power or 15
through 22, which comprise the GMRS channels of this radio. Serious penalties
could result for unlicensed use of GMRS channels, in violation of FCC rules.
Operation of this radio is subject to additional rules specified in 47 C.F.R. Part 95. 

Licensed users will be issued a call sign by the FCC, which should be used for
station identification when operating this radio. GMRS users 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. 

For licensing information and application forms, please call the FCC Hotline 
at 800-418-FORM. Request form #159 and form #605. Questions regarding 
the license application should be directed to the FCC at 888-CALL-FCC. 
Additional information is available on the FCC’s website at www.fcc.gov.

Channel 1 through 7 on low power and channels 8 through 14 comprise the 
FRS (Family Radio Service). No license is required to operate on the FRS.

Safety Information for microTALK Radios

Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter.
When the talk button is pushed, it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. 
The device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. 
In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted 
RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless devices. 

Important

FCC RF Exposure Requirements: For body-worn operation, this radio has 
been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with Cobra
accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other accessories 
may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. Use only the
supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments 
could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations. 

Normal Position

Hold the transmitter approximately two inches from your face and 
speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject 
to the following two conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and 2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

FCC Warnings: Replacement or substitution of transistors, regular diodes or
other parts of a unique nature, with parts other than those recommended by
Cobra may cause a violation of the technical regulations of part 95 of the FCC
rules, or violation of type acceptance requirements of part 2 of the rules.

Please note that Cobra GMRS models with 15 Channels 

may designate different channel numbers for the same frequency. 
For example, a Cobra 15 Channel GMRS model would need to be 
tuned to Channel 11 in order to communicate with a 22 Channel 
GMRS tuned to Channel 15. Please refer to the chart below for 
channel/ frequency number compatibility.
