•As noted in Table 2-1,ALWAYS keep the device and its antenna AT LEAST 1.1 cm (0.43 inches) from the body and at least 2.5 cm (1.0 inch) from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. However, to provide the best sound quality to the recipients of your transmission, M/A-COM recommends you hold the microphone at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly off to one side.

| Body | | Face |
136-174 MHz | 1.1 cm | | 2.5 cm |
378-430 MHz | 1.1 cm | | 2.5 cm |
440-512 MHz | 1.1 cm | | 2.5 cm |

2.2ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY
During transmissions, this M/A-COM radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
