FCC REgUlATiONS
liCENSiNg —
The FCC requires the owners of
J Series
radios to obtain a station license before
using them.
The station licensee is responsible for ensuring that transmitter power, frequency and deviation
are within the limits specified by the station license. The station licensee is also responsible for
proper operation and maintenance of the radio equipment. This includes checking the transmitter
frequency and deviation periodically, using appropriate methods.
To get a FCC license for VHF or UHF frequencies, submit FCC application Form 600 as indicated
in the block at right. Your Ritron dealer can help you with this process.

and/ or from changing transmit frequencies unless you are specifically designated by the
licensee.

contact your authorized dealer or Ritron.
