having a maximum gain of 4 dB. This means all persons must be at
least 200 cm away from the antenna when the radio is
transmitting.
Installation
1. An omni-directional antenna with a maximum power gain of
4 dB must be mounted at least 400 cm above the highest deck
where people may be staying during radio transmissions. The
distance is to be measured vertically from the lowest point of
the antenna. This provides the minimum separation distance
which is in compliance with RF exposure requirements and is
based on the MPE radius of 200 cm plus the 200 cm height of
an adult.
2. On vessels that cannot fulfil requirements in item 1, the antenna
must be mounted so that its lowest point is at least 3 ft. (0.9m)
vertically above the heads of people on deck and all persons
must be outside the 200 cm MPE radius during radio
transmission.
•
Always mount the antenna at least 200 cm from possible
human access.
•
Never touch the antenna when transmitting
•
Use only authorized T&T accessories.
3. If the antenna has to be placed in public areas or near people
with no awareness of the radio transmission, the antenna must
be placed at a distance not less than 200 cm from possible
human access.
Failure to observe any of these warnings may cause you or other
people to exceed FCC RF exposure limits or create other dangerous
conditions.
