Mobile Antenna Installation Guidelines
These mobile antenna installation guidelines are limited to metal body motor vehicles
or vehicles with appropriate ground planes.
Antennas should be installed in the center area of the roof or the trunk lid taking
into account exposure conditions of backseat passengers and according to the spe-
cific instructions and restrictions in the "Installation" Chapter along with the re-
quirements of the antenna supplier.
Trunk lid installations are limited to vehicles with clearly defined flat trunk lids, and
in some cases, to specific radio models and antennas. See the "Installation" Chapter
for specific information on how and where to install specific types of antennas to
facilitate recommended operating distances to all potentially exposed persons.
Antennas with gains higher than the authorized maximum gain, unauthorized modi-
fications, or attachments could damage the radio and may result in non-compliance
with RF Safety Standards.
Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions for
Mobile Two-Way Radios Installed as Fixed Site Control Stations
If mobile radio equipment is installed at a fixed location and operated as a control sta-
tion or as a fixed unit, the antenna installation must comply with the following require-
ments in order to ensure optimal performance and compliance with the RF energy ex-
posure limits in the standards and guidelines listed above:
The antenna should be mounted outside the building on the roof or a tower if at all
possible.
As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licensee to
manage the site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and may re-
quire additional compliance actions such as site survey measurements, signage and
site access restrictions in order to ensure that exposure limits are not exceeded.
For additional installation information, see the guidelines for minimum separation
distances provided above in the RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines
and Operating Instructions section of this document.
