When you receive your license from the
FCC, you are assigned a call sign. You
must give your call sign at the end of every
communication exchange or once every 15
minutes during a continuous
communication.
We recommend you record the radio’s
serial number and your call sign in the
space provided, and keep this manual and
a copy of your GMRS license with your
important records. The serial number is on
the transceiver’s back panel.

Your RadioShack radio
generates RF
electromagnetic energy
during transmit mode.
This radio is designed for
and classified as “
Occupational Use
Only
”, meaning it must be used only
during the course of employment by
individuals aware of the hazards, and
the ways to minimize such hazards. This
radio is
NOT
intended for use by the
“General Population” in an uncontrolled
environment.
This radio has been tested and complies
with the FCC RF exposure limits for
“Occupational Use Only.” In addition, your
RadioShack radio complies with the
following Standards and Guidelines with
regard to RF energy and electromagnetic
energy levels and evaluation of such levels
for exposure to humans:
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 01-01
Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance
with FCC Guidelines for Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields.
• American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) (C95.1—1992), IEEE Standard
for Safety Levels with Respect to
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300
GHz.
• American National Standards Institute
(C95.3—1999), IEEE Recommended
Practice for the Measurements of
Potentially Hazardous
Electromagnetic Fields — RF and
Microwave.
To ensure that your
exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy is
within the FCC allowable
limits for occupational
use, always adhere to the following
guidelines:
DO NOT operate the radio without a proper
antenna attached, as this may damage the
radio and may also cause you to exceed
FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna
is the antenna supplied with the radio by the
manufacturer or an antenna specifically
