Antenna Installation Warning

1. All antenna installation and servicing is to be performed by

qualiﬁed technical personnel

only. When servicing the antenna, or

working at distances closer than those listed below,

ensure the

transmitter has been disabled.

Output is measured at the antenna terminal of the transmitter. The

antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be ﬁxed-mounted on

outdoor permanent structures to provide the minimum separation

distances described in this ﬁling for satisfying RF exposure

compliance requirements. When applicable, RF exposure

compliance may need to be addressed at the time of licensing, as

required by the responsible FCC Bureau(s), including antenna

co-location requirements of section 1.1307(b)(3).

2. Typically, the antenna connected to the transmitter is a directional

(high gain) antenna, ﬁxed-mounted on the side or top of a building,

or on a tower. Depending upon the application and the gain of the

antenna, the total composite power could exceed 90 watts EIRP. The

antenna location should be such that only qualiﬁed technical per-

sonnel can access it, and that under normal operating conditions no

other person can touch the antenna or approach within

2.3 meters

the antenna.
