Blocking Out Zones
The transceiver uses channels in the 902–928 MHz spectrum, with
selectable hopping from 1 to 80 channels. This selection is available
only on ESS-II or specially provisioned ESS units using the

link. If this is not done, the radios will not connect.
NOTE:
The ESS-II operates only in the
CHANNELS
mode, with select-
able hopping from 1 to 75 channels.
