The documents for which Cobra Electronics Corporation is requesting confidentiality are: Schematic Diagram Block Diagrams Operational Descriptions Parts List Tune Up info This request is made under the provisions of Section 0.457(d) of the Commission’s Rules, and Section 552(b)(4) of the Freedom of Information Act.

August 22, 2014 Equipment Authorization Division Office of Engineering and Technology Federal Communications Commission 7435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 Ref: FCC ID: BBO0131B Dear Sirs: Cobra Electronics Corporation requests acceptance of the labeling proposal described below for the transceiver bearing FCC identifier BBO0131B. The subject transceiver is a compact handheld model as shown in figure 1, authorized under 47CFR Part 95 for FRS and GMRS services. Figure 1. Belt Clip Battery Door Clip Batteries Because the majority of the transceiver housing is composed of display, speaker, operating controls, and a battery access cover, there is extremely limited space available to attach the required label carrying the FCC identifier. Attaching the label to the battery access cover is not acceptable because the battery access cover is a removable item. For this reason, Cobra proposes placing the label carrying the FCC identifier inside the battery compartment as shown in figure 2. Figure 2. The consumer packaging for these models includes the batteries as separate items, NOT installed in the radio. As such, the FCC identifier will be readily visible to the user before the batteries are installed and whenever the batteries are removed or replaced. In this location, the label will also be protected from physical abuse and remain readable for the anticipated life of the device. The consumer packaging for these models is a transparent plastic "clamshell" but, because the battery access cover is installed on the radio, the battery compartment cannot be seen at time of purchase. In order to meet the requirements of 47CFR Part 2.925 (d), Cobra will add the FCC identifier "BBO0131B" to the insert card within the clamshell packaging. Sincerely, Paul Lee Project Engineer
