WARNING
This radio is capable of transmitting on VHF Marine and FRS.
The FCC allows the use of VHF Marine band on water areas only. How-
ever the FCC does not allow the use of the VHF Marine band when on
land. If persons use the VHF Marine Band on land and interfere with
others communicating, the FCC will be notified and search for the inter-
ference. Responsible parties found to be transmitting on the VHF Ma-
rine Band on land could be fined up to $10,000 for the first offense.
FRS Band may be used on the land and water. The FCC does however
prohibit the use in aircraft.
