requires   HAM   license   to   operate   legally.    Black    selections   are   only   available   on   

special   request   (custom   firmware   for   large   events   with   prior   legal   body   approval).   The   video   transmitter   

ensures   that   you   cannot   select   illegal   channels   or   power   levels   by   accident:   

 

When   controlled   by   the   push   button,   you   will   need   to   confirm   having   a   HAM   license   by   following   

the   steps   described   above   to   unlock   your   video   transmitter   

 

Through   the   CORE   PRO,   you   are   required   to   enter   your   HAM   license   number   under   the   “Callsign”   

menu   before   you   can   access   the   high   power   transmission   settings   and   the   locked   out   channels
