The Rules and Regulations of the United States Federal Commu-
nications Commission (FCC) require you or your radio service
provider to have a license for your radio system before activating
the Quick Talk radio transmitter. If you already are operating a
licensed radio system, you most likely can add a Quick Talk
without any changes to that license.
The station licensee is responsible for ensuring that transmitter
power, frequency and modulation are within the limits specified by
the station license, and also for proper operation and maintenance
of the radio equipment. These responsibilities include checking
the transmitter frequency and modulation periodically, using
appropriate methods.
Ritron or your Ritron dealer can help you with all of these
requirements. You may also contact the FCC directly by any of the
following methods:
To obtain copies of FCC forms and instructions use the FCC Fax-
On-Demand system at 1-202-418-0177. Request Document

F.C.C. LICENSING AND REGULATIONS
SAFETY STANDARDS — The FCC has adopted a safety
standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment. The Quick Talk
conforms to the standards effective at the time of its equipment
authorization by the FCC. In general these standards recommend
that you:
•
DO NOT allow the antenna to become very close to or
touch exposed parts of the body, especially the face or
eyes, while transmitting.
•
DO NOT transmit near electrical blasting caps or in an
explosive atmosphere.
•
DO NOT allow children to play with radio transmitters.
•
BE AWARE of the conditions which cause the unit to
transmit.
SERVICE - Federal law prohibits you from making any internal
adjustments to the transmitter, and from changing transmit
frequencies unless you are specifically designated by the
licensee.
Do not adjust or tamper with components or the printed circuit
board in any manner not directed in this manual. Unauthorized
adjustments may render the unit inoperable; repair will be at
owner's expense.
If your radio equipment fails to operate properly, or you wish to
have the Ritron Quick Talk serviced, contact your authorized
dealer or call Ritron at 1-317-846-1201 and ask for the Repair
Department.

tained in the programming and programming/ service kits. For the

consequential damages are not recoverable under this warranty (this
includes loss of use or time, inconvenience, business interruption,
commercial loss, lost profits or savings). Some states do not allow

age, or operation of the system as a whole under this warranty.
