AFLink Repeater

This is an external AFLink radio modem and antenna used to retransmit RTK signals around obstacles. This version will work
with AFLink Base Station models. The AFLink Repeater must match the frequency of the Base Station and rover.

AFLink Radio Regulations

The standard A5 Base Stations do not require a license to operate as they operate on the public 900MHz frequency. The
AFLink radios broadcast on a regulated frequency. If using an AFLink radio, the operator is required to follow additional
regulations in order to operate the radios legally. The regulations and laws vary by country and location. Before operating an
AFLink radio, obtain a copy of the local laws and ensure they have been followed.

Modifying or tampering with the device's internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and
void your authorization to operate it. If your system is not performing satisfactorily, contact your local dealer for assistance.

This product uses one or more radio devices that must be licensed in order to be operated legally. It is the end user's
responsibility to apply for, hold and renew applicable licenses for these devices.

Note: Do not operate this system until legal authorization has been obtained. Severe fines can be levied for unlicensed
systems. Any fines are the responsibility of the owner.

FCC Regulations

When operating in the United States, FCC licenses are required for AFLink radios.

This device is intended for use in the operation of commercial activities, educational, philanthropic, or ecclesiastical
institutions, hospitals, clinics, or medical associations.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires you to have a license before you operate this device. Unless you are
already licensed to operate on one of the preset frequencies, you must apply for a frequency through the PCIA (Personal
Communication Industry Association), a non-profit organization that assigns frequencies nationwide to help prevent conflicts
between different businesses using devices in the same area. For more information about getting a license, contact the PCIA at
800-759-0300, extension 3068 (in Virginia 703-739-0300, extension 3068).

For other questions concerning the license application, contact the FCC at 717-337-1212, or write:
