Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter.

When the talk button is pushed, it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

The device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50%.

In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted

RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless devices.
