FCC Licensing Information
The Rino two-way radio operates on General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) frequencies regulated by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States. Operation on the GMRS frequencies is subject to rules
as specified in 47 CFR Part 95.
In order to transmit on GMRS frequencies, you are required to obtain a license from the FCC. An individual
18 years of age or older, who is not a representative of a foreign government, is eligible to apply for a GMRS
license. To apply for a GMRS license, you need FCC Form 605 (605 Main Form and Schedule F) and FCC Form
159. Download the application forms from the FCC web site at www.fcc .gov/Forms/. You can also request
them through the FCC forms hotline at 1-800-418-FORM (1-800-418-3676).
File Form 605 online at http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls/. A filing fee is associated with this application.
For information on fees, go to the FCC fee information web page at http://wireless.fcc.gov/feesforms/index
.html or at http://wireless.fcc.gov /services/personal/generalmobile/.
For questions concerning the license application, contact the FCC at 1-888-Call-FCC (1-888-225-5322).
No license is required to operate on GMRS channels in Canada. However, GMRS repeater channels are not
approved for use by the Canadian government.
For use in countries outside of the U.S. and Canada, please check with that government for any restrictions of
FRS or GMRS use.
