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 beings 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 and Electronic
Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1 -1992
•
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1999 Edition
•
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United
States, Report 86, 1986
•
International commission on Non-Ionizing 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.
It is recommended that transmit antenna be kept at least 16 inches away from nearby
persons to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. As part of the RF Exposure
assessment procedure, you should also note any additional transmitting antennas in the
immediate area that, because they are co-located with yours, could cause the maximum
radiated energy to exceed a safe level.
Any antenna placed outdoors must be properly grounded. Please let qualified personnel
experienced in antenna installation and familiar with local codes and regulations
complete the antenna installation. Use extreme caution when installing
antennae and follow all instructions included with the antennas.
