maintained between the radiating antenna and the body of all persons exposed by the
transmitter to meet FCC exposure guidelines.
This transmitter is only approved to operate with an antenna not exceeding 1.5 watts
total system ERP (effective radiated power) for operations with the antenna located at
more than 20 cm from all persons. The warning label must be displayed at the base of
the antenna, clearly visible to all persons exposed to the transmitter.
