Please note that further comments may arise in response to answers provided to the questions below. 1. Please note that the manual provides tables that indicate the device can be used in uncontrolled environments (see table 1-1 page 6 of the installation manual). The warning label states the device is only for controlled environments. Please also note that the safe distances mentioned in the MPE report are not the same as specified in the installation manual. Please explain why. 2. Please provide the test report for the application package. The report provided under Test Report, is a duplicate of the MPE report 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.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 May 22, 2005 Supplemental comments RE: FCC ID: BV8VTAC800_ATCB002435 Attention: Rick McMurray / Kathy Grzovic 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 note that the 731 states the power of this device is 24.6W. Pages 1 and 12 of the report also state 24.6W. However, the spurious emissions data shown on page 43 of the report state that the conducted high power is only 15.14W (which appears to be from the occupied bandwidth plots). Please note that radiated ERP limits for spurious emissions are to be compared to the measured ERP power measurements of the fundamental and not conducted power measurements or occupied bandwidth measurement data as would be indicated in the report. While the end result of the formula 43 + 10log(P) is -13dBm for all of the above instances, -13dBm is not the limit to which measurements are being made. As it s the dBc values that are stated in the report, these values should reflect the correct units etc. The report references incorrect dBc limits and does not agree with the conducted power measurements reported on page 1 and 12 of the report nor is there ERP antenna substitution measurements to support dBc values for radiated spurious emissions. Please explain and please compare the radiated spurious ERP emissions using the proper and correct power levels and values. 2. Please note that the manual separation distances listed do not agree with the MPE report distances. Please address the inconsistent MPE distances in the various documents. Please be consistent in reporting MPE. Dennis Ward mailto:[email protected] The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application.

Questions and comments are presented below: 1. Please note that the manual provides tables that indicate the device can be used in uncontrolled environments (see table 1-1 page 6 of the installation manual). The warning label states the device is only for controlled environments. Response: Both the Operator’s and Installation manuals have been revised to show Controlled environment values only. Updated manuals are supplied with this letter response. 2. Please also note that the safe distances mentioned in the MPE report are not the same as specified in the installation manual. Please explain why. Response: Both the Operator’s and Installation manuals have been revised to show Controlled environment distances, consistent with the MPE report. Updated manuals are supplied with this letter response. Finally, the 0dBd vertical antenna has been shown as having the same MPE distance as the 3.5dBd antenna, a very conservative assumption. Testing was bypassed and the lumped listing approach used, due to the small incremental distance difference and the cost associated with testing multiple antenna variants. Thank you for your kind consideration and timely review of these responses. Sincerely, Daryl Popowitch Regulatory Manager, Engineering Project Manager M/A-COM, Inc. – Lynchburg, VA

Please explain and please compare the radiated spurious ERP emissions using the proper and correct power levels and values. Response : Regarding using ERP vs conducted measurements for the spurious comparison, per previous certifications (see correspondence for ATH2425170) and a telephone call discussing this subject with you, Bill Graff and myself (Rick McMurray) on July 15, 2004, we kindly request that we leave the comparison against the conducted power. Regarding the conducted power values on pages 41 and 42 not matching the power reported on pages 1 and 12, the EUT is comprised of two individual transmitters joined through a combiner. In worst case operation, both transmitters can transmit simultaneously, but always on separate frequencies. For the spurious data presented on pages 41 and 42, the transmitters were operating simultaneously (to represent worst case), but the emissions from only one of the transmitters was individually evaluated in each case (since we were not only focusing on the spurious emissions, but from the harmonics generated by the specific transmitter being investigated). We chose this approach as it puts more stringent limits on the emissions from each of the transmitters while operating simultaneously (as opposed to using the combined total power as reported on pages 1 and 12). 2. Please note that the manual separation distances listed do not agree with the MPE report distances. Please address the inconsistent MPE distances in the various documents. Please be consistent in reporting MPE. Response : Please refer to the revised installation and operations manuals uploaded with this response.

Model OpenSky M-803 VTAC (Vehicular Tactical Unit) 800 MHz Radio. The tests were performed in accordance with the FCC Rules and Regulations: FCC OET Bulletin 65: “Evaluating Compliance with FCC-Specified Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation”, Subpart I of Part 1 of 47 CFR FCC Rules and Regulations: “Procedures Implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969”, Subpart J of Part 2 of 47 CFR: “Equipment Authorization Procedures”, 47 CFR paragraph 1.1310: “Radiofrequency radiation exposure limits”, 47 CFR paragraph 2.1091: “Radiofrequency radiation exposure evaluation: mobile and unlicensed devices”, and TCB training material. 2 IDENTIFICATION OF THE EUT The system consists of an 800 MHz transceiver (VRM), a repeater (VRB), an RF combiner and is controlled by a control head/microphone. The EUT consists of two transceivers that can transmit simultaneously, which connect to a single antenna through a combiner. Since both transceivers can transmit simultaneously, simultaneous transmission was determined to be the worst case mode of operation for power measurements, and therefore represents worst case for the MPE measurements. Detailed information about the EUT is shown below. Manufacturer’s Name M/A-COM, Inc.
