FCC rule para 2.925 requires the words "FCC ID" to be placed before the FCC identifier. Please submit revised label drawings or photographs that show compliance with this requirement. Attached 2. The product interior photographs do not seem to have sufficient resolution. Please re-submit or re-scan at a higher resolution. Attached 3. Will the amplifier be sold for use with 12.5 kHz channel bandwidth equipment? If so, the limit for emissions removed by more than 12.5 kHz must be suppressed by at least 50+10log(Pwatts). i.e., they must be less than -20dBm . The display line shown on the spuruios emissions graphs is -13 dBm. Please comment. Please reference new page 70 of the report - attached 4. For spurious emission field strength emissions required by rule para. 2.1053, emissions are referenced to the radiated output power of the transmitter, assuming all emissions are radiated from a dipole. FCC interprets this to mean that the "substitution" method must be used to determine compliance. This method called out by EIA/TIA 603 specification (among others) requires that once radiated emissions from the EUT have been measured, the EUT is removed and a signal generator and substitution antenna is put in its place. Emissions are again maximized, the signal generator is set to match the radiated reading, and the resultant ERP is compared against the limit. Please submit data for radiated emissions performed in this fashion. Attached 5. Please submit a photograph showing the radiated emissions test set-up Attached 6. The schematics do not seem to have sufficient resolution to be legible. Please submit original electronic file or new document scanned at higher resolution.

Also, based on the results of the enclosed data, I have concluded that the equipment tested meets or exceeds the requirements of the Rules and Regulations governing this application. 1.2 Measurement Repeatability Information The test data presented in this report has been acquired using the guidelines set forth in FCC Part 2.1031 through 2.1057, and Part 90. The test results presented in this document are valid only for the equipment identified herein under the test conditions described. Repeatability of these test results will only be achieved with identical measurement conditions. These conditions include: The same test distance, EUT Height, Measurement Site Characteristics, and the same EUT System Components. The system must have the same Interconnecting Cables arranged in identical placement to that in the test set-up, with the system and/or EUT functioning in the identical mode of operation (i.e. software and so on) as on the date of the test. Any deviation from the test conditions and the environment on the date of the test may result in measurement repeatability difficulties. All changes made to the EUT during the course of testing as identified in this test report must be incorporated into the EUT or identical models to ensure compliance with the FCC regulations. C. L.
