Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada (ISED) Conformity
This radio transmitter has been approved by Innovation,
Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) to
operate with the antenna types listed previously with the
maximum permissible gain and required antenna
impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna
types not included in this list, having a gain greater than
the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly
prohibited for use with this device.
Le présent émetteur radio est conforme aux CNR
d'Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types
d'antenne énumérés ci-dessus et ayant un gain
admissible maximal et l'impédance requise pour
chaque type d'antenne. Les types d'antenne non
inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est supérieur
au gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits
pour l'exploitation de l'émetteur.
