Because of recent occurrences of authorized operation at 406 MHz, the US Coast Guard and
NOAA have asked us to implement a program to notify the equipment manufacturers, service
personnel and users that the frequency band 406 - 406.1 MHz is reserved for use by distress
beacons. Such steps should include a warning in the users manual. The ultimate protection would
be software to lockout this frequency band. Please indicate what measures you will take in this
matter.
Verify that this frequency band will NOT be programmed into the preprogrammed channels.
Revised Operating Instruction Manual is attached.
