1 GENERAL INFORMATION Manual Organization The organization of this document reflects the modular construction of the UT-4D family of products. Each product is fully described within its respective “sub-manual”; all of which are contained within this document. In general, each of these sub-manuals contain: 1. A functional description and specification summary. 2. A detailed technical description (Theory of Operation). 3. Assembly, setup and alignment procedures relevant to the particular module.
2 General Information UT-4D400 Transmitter Family Models There are four distinct models in the UT-4D400 Transmitter family each with different bands of operation and power outputs. The four models are as follows: • UT-4D420-2 406-430 MHz band, 0.5-2.0 Watt • UT-4D420-8 406-430 MHz band, 2.0-8.0 Watt • UT-4D460-2 450-470 MHz band, 0.5-2.0 Watt • UT-4D460-8 450-470 MHz band, 2.0-8.0 Watt The transmitters’ band of operation is determined by select components in the amplifier.

iii RF Exposure Warning Exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy has been identified as a potential environmental factor that must be considered before a radio transmitter can be authorized or licensed. The FCC has therefore developed maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limits for field strength and power density, listed in FCC 47 CFR § 1.1310.
