Being
Part
of
the
RF
community
Operation
of
a
licensed
radio
product
makes
you
a
member
of
the
RF
community.
Be
aware
that
virtually
all
frequencies
licensed
are
provided
on
a
shared
basis
with
other
users.
Each
frequency
dedicated
specifically
to
RTK
surveying
activities
has
certain
restrictions
and
limitations.
For
complete
information,
refer
to
Part
90,
Title
47,
of
the
Code
of
Federal
Regulations.
Most
frequencies
sharing
data
transmissions
and
voice
transmissions
give
priority
to
voice
users.
Be
mindful
of
the
persistent
nature
of
a
GPS
RTK
data
transmission
and
always
limit
your
RF
transmission
output
power
when
performing
close
‐
in
survey
situations
to
avoid
interference
with
co
‐
channel
users.
Pacific
Crest
recommends
using
the
low
RF
power
setting
for
construction
site
and
other
line
‐
of
‐
site
surveys
with
baselines
less
than
two
miles
(depending
on
terrain).
Warning:
If
you
are
in
conflict
with
a
co
‐
channel
user,
select
another
frequency
to
avoid
formal
FCC
actions.
In
most
cases
you
are
required
to
vacate
a
frequency
upon
complaint
by
a
shared
channel
voice
user.
Most
survey
operations
are
itinerant
in
that
the
system
is
moved
on
a
frequent
basis.
For
fixed
system
installations,
you
should
not
use
frequencies
set
aside
for
itinerant
operations,
but
should
coordinate
a
frequency
based
on
the
fixed
area
operation.
Regulations
differ
from
country
to
country,
so
please
be
aware
of
the
local
regulations
prior
to
using
radio
equipment.
Automatic
Station
Identification
For
operation
in
the
United
States,
the
FCC
requires
that
radio
transmitters
used
for
GPS
RTK
applications
periodically
broadcast
a
station
identifier.
The
station
identifier
is
the
call
sign
assigned
to
you
on
the
station
license.
The
ADL
Vantage
supports
the
broadcast
of
station
identification
in
a
manner
that
meets
the
requirements
of
the
FCC.
Upon
receipt
of
equipment,
program
your
FCC
call
sign
into
the
configuration
of
your
ADL
Vantage
using
ADLCONF
software.
This
is
only
required
for
transmitters.
Warning:
Failure
to
transmit
your
station
identification
is
in
violation
of
FCC
regulations.
Use
ADLCONF
software
to
enter
your
FCC
call
sign.
