Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to pro-vide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Prior to testing, the EUT was tuned up in accordance with the manufacturer’s alignment procedures. All external gain controls were maintained at the position of maximum and/or optimum gain throughout the testing. Measurement results, unless otherwise noted, are worst case measurement. Unless otherwise indicated in the specific measurement results, the ambient temperature was maintained within the range of 10º to 40ºC (50º to 104ºF) and the relative humidity levels were in the range of 10% to 90%. Environmental Conditions Temperature (°C) Humidity (%) Pressure (mbar) 23.2 – 25.1 32.4 – 41.2 967.5 – 971.2 Test and Measurement Data All tests and measurement data shown were performed in accordance with FCC Rules and Regulations, Volume II; Part 2 and the following individual Parts: FCC Part 25 Satellite Communications. Prior to testing the EUT was tuned up in accordance with the manufacturer’s alignment procedures. All external gain controls were maintained at the position of maximum and/or optimum gain throughout the testing. Measurement results, unless otherwise noted, are worst case measurements.

Only the worst case emission at each frequency was reported. Notch and high pass filters were utilized to ensure that the fundamental power did not force the input of the spectrum analyzer into compressions. These losses in addition to cable losses were input into the analyzer as a reference level offset to ensure accurate measurements were obtained.
