IMPORTANT NOTICE, FCC LICENSE REQUIRED FOR GMRS OPERATION
The GXT444 operates on GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) frequencies
which require an FCC (Federal Communications Commission) license. You must
be licensed prior to operating on channels 1 - 7 or 15 - 22, which comprise the
GMRS channels of the GXT444. Serious penalties could result for unlicensed
use of GMRS channels, in violation of FCC rules, as stipulated in the
Communications Act's Sections 501 and 502 (amended).
You will be issued a call sign by the FCC which should be used for station
identification when operating the radio on GMRS channels. You should also
cooperate by engaging in permissible transmissions only, avoiding channel
interference with other GMRS users, and being prudent with the length of their
transmission time.
To obtain a license or ask questions about the license application, contact the
FCC at 1-888-CALL FCC or go to the FCC's website:
