INSTRUCTION MANUAL This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.Operation is subject to the condition that this devicedoes not cause harmful interference.UHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVER iF2821/D iF2721/D VHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVER iF1821/D iF1721/D !IC-F1721D.qxd 04.9.2 5:58 PM Page a (1,1) i EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electricshock. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This connection will ruinthe transceiver. NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting,the transceiver might be damaged. NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodilyinjury. NEVER allow children to touch the transceiver. NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. USE the supplied microphone only. Other microphones have different pin assignments and may damage the trans-ceiver. DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem- peratures below –30°C (–22°F) or above +60°C (+140°F), orin areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard. PRECAUTION WORD DEFINITION R WARNING Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shockmay occur. CAUTION Equipment damage may occur. NOTE If disregarded, inconvenience only. No riskof personal injury, fire or electric shock. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and com- pletely before using the transceiver.

The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out if thetransceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine OFF.AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty envi- ronments. AVOID placing the transceiver against walls. This will obstruct heat dissipation. AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver sur-faces.BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operating continuously for long periods.For U.S.A. onlyCAUTION: Changes or modifications to this transceiver, not ex- pressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operatethis transceiver under FCC regulations.

October 21, 2004 AmericanTCB, Inc. 6735 Whittier Avenue, Suite C110 McLean, VA 22101 Subject: Type Acceptance Application under FCC 47 CFR, Parts 2 and 90 (Subpart I) - Non-Broadcast Radio Transceivers Operating in the Frequency Band 136-174 MHz (12.5 kHz and 25 kHz Channel Spacings). Applicant: ICOM Incorporated Product: VHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVER Model: IC-F1721D FCC ID: AFJ278100 Dear Sir/Madam, As appointed agent for ICOM Incorporated, we would like to submit the application to Federal Communications Commission for certification of the above product. Please review all files uploaded to ATCB electronic filing site. If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us by our TOLL FREE No.:1-877-747-6381 Yours truly, Tri Minh Luu, P.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 October 27, 2004 RE: FCC ID: AFJ278100_ATCB001845 Attention: Tri Luu I have a few comments on this Application. Please note that further comments may arise in response to answers provided to the questions below. 1. Please provide the MPE calculation report as a separate exhibit. 2. Please note that the OBW plot on pages 33 through 38 shows that there part of the fundamental modulation is still outside the marked 99%BW designation. This means that the measured 99%BW may not be correct. For example, the 99% BW on the plot on page 33 would more appropriately appear to be 10.5kHz rather than the 6.7kHz stated on the plot. Please note that the emissions mask plots would also seem to indicate this also. Please explain why the upper and lower modulation products that are over the 26dB point (23dB for actual 99% BW) were not included in the 99% BW measurements. 3. In reference to item 2, there also appear to be minor 99% BW errors (i.e. not all of the signal was considered) on pages 40, 41, 45, 46 and 47 of the report. Please explain. Dennis Ward mailto:[email protected] The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application. Failure to provide the requested information may result in application termination. Correspondence should be considered part of the permanent submission and may be viewed from the Internet after a Grant of Equipment Authorization is issued. Please do not respond to this correspondence using the email reply button. In order for your response to be processed expeditiously, you must submit your documents through the AmericanTCB.com website. Also, please note that partial responses increase processing time and should not be submitted. Any questions about the content of this correspondence should be directed to the sender.

Please note that the OBW plot on pages 33 through 38 shows that there part of the fundamental modulation is still outside the marked 99%BW designation. This means that the measured 99%BW may not be correct. For example, the 99% BW on the plot on page 33 would more appropriately appear to be 10.5 kHz rather than the 6.7 kHz stated on the plot. Please note that the emissions mask plots would also seem to indicate this also. Please explain why the upper and lower modulation products that are over the 26dB point (23dB for actual 99% BW) were not included in the 99% BW measurements. 3. In reference to item 2, there also appear to be minor 99% BW errors (i.e. not all of the signal was considered) on pages 40, 41, 45, 46 and 47 of the report. Please explain. We have measured occupied bandwidth as per FCC rule part Sec. 2.1049, which recommends 99% BW measurement. 99% BW measurement is an automatic feature of the analyzer, hence once the full spectrum is displayed on the analyzer, we select 99% BW measurement and the analyzer calculates the BW, which contains 99% power and displays results automatically. There is no human control on these measurements. We have again performed measurement for Plot-1, with increased span of 30 KHz to cover full spectrum and the result is similar to our previous measurement, shown below for your reference. Also theoretically 99% BW = 10 log(0.01) = - 20dB. We have also measured 20 dB OBW, which is only 5.74 KHz, less than the 99% measurement, shown below for the comparison.

(2) Antenna installation and device operating instructions for installers (professional/unskilled users), and the parties responsible for ensuring compliance with the RF exposure requirement (3) Any caution statements and/or warning labels that are necessary in order to comply with the exposure limits (4) Any other RF exposure related issues that may affect MPE compliance FCC PARTS 2 & 90, SUBPART I, NON-BROADCAST RADIO TRANSCEIVERS Page 13 VHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVER, Model IC-F1721D FCC ID: AFJ278100 ULTRATECH GROUP OF LABS File #: ICOM-094FCC90 3000 Bristol Circle, Oakville, Ontario, Canada L6H 6G4 October 21, 2004 Tel. #: 905-829-1570, Fax. #: 905-829-8050, Email: [email protected] , Website: http://www.ultratech-labs.com All test results contained in this engineering test report are traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Calculation Method of RF Safety Distance : S = PG/4Πr 2 =EIRP/4Πr 2 Where: P: power input to the antenna in mW EIRP: Equivalent (effective) isotropic radiated power.

If the maximum average output power, operating condition configurations and exposure conditions are comparable to those of existing cellular and PCS phones., an SAR evaluation may be required in order to determine if such a device complies with SAR limit. When SAR evaluation data is not available, and the additional supporting information cannot assure compliance, the Commission may request that an SAR evaluation be performed, as provided for in Section 1.1307(d) FCC PARTS 2 & 90, SUBPART I, NON-BROADCAST RADIO TRANSCEIVERS Page 14 VHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVER, Model IC-F1721D FCC ID: AFJ278100 ULTRATECH GROUP OF LABS File #: ICOM-094FCC90 3000 Bristol Circle, Oakville, Ontario, Canada L6H 6G4 October 21, 2004 Tel. #: 905-829-1570, Fax. #: 905-829-8050, Email: [email protected] , Website: http://www.ultratech-labs.com All test results contained in this engineering test report are traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 6.6.3.
