PHONE: 320-864-4444 TEST DATE: 10 July, 1999 EQUIPMENT UNDER TEST: 433.92 Mhz Superregenerative receiver GENERAL TEST SUMMARY: The testing was performed at International Certification Services, Inc. at 1100 Falcon Ave, Glencoe, MN 55336 VERIFICATION / CERTIFICATION The 433.92 Mhz Superregenerative receiver was found STATUS: to be in compliance with the FCC Part 15 Subpart B, Section 15.109 requirements. MODIFICATIONS NECESSARY: None TESTED BY WRITTEN BY Gerald Heinen Duane R. Bagdons 2.0 Applicable Standards INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATION SERVICES, INC.

47 CFR Ch.1 (10-1-98 Edition) FCC Part 15 Radio Frequency Devices Subpart B Unintentional Radiators Section 15.109 Radiated Emission Limits 2.1 Referenced Standards ANSI C63.4-1992 Methods of Measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 9 Khz to 40 Ghz. 2.2 Equipment Units Tested The equipment tested was a battery powered 433.92 Mhz super regenerative receiver. This subassembly is used in various products. The antenna is a permanent component and is part of the internal PC board assembly. 2.3 Equipment and Cable Configuration See photos of the EUT pc board and schematic and test configuration setup in Attachment A 2.4 List of Test Equipment Test Equipment Model S/N Calibration Date Spectrum Analyzer Hewlett-Packard 8566B 2421A00458 3/10/99 Preamp MiniCircuits ZKL-2R7 N/A 6/1/99 Biconical Antenna AH Systems Model SAS- 328 6/16/99 200/540 Log Periodic Antenna EMCO 3146 9111-3280 6/16/99 (200-1000 MHz) Horn Antenna (1-18 Ghz) EMCO 3115 5697 3/5/99 Measurement cable losses, and antenna correction factors are included in the data sheets. Average detection methods were used in the measurements. The Resolution BW was set at 1 Mhz and the Video BW was set at 1 Hz with a Span of 0 Hz to perform the correct average detected measurements. 2.5 Units of Measurement. All measurements were taken in dBuV/m with the antenna located at 3 meters distance from the EUT. Frequency measurements are recorded in Mhz 2.6 Location of Test Site The open area test site (OATS) measurement facility used to collect the data was International Certification Services, Inc. at 1100 Falcon Ave in Glencoe, MN 55336. This INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATION SERVICES, INC.

site has been certified to be in spec of the normalized site attenuation per ANSI C63.4- 1992. See letter of compliance from FCC dated July 23, 1998. (FCC 31040/SIT 1300F2) 2.7 Measurement Procedures A driving signal was induced into the receiver by using a stick antenna driven by a signal generator. The generator was tuned to 433.92 Mhz and the output amplitude was set to a very low level (-30 dBm) just enough to excite the receiver. Receiver activity was monitored with an oscilloscope. The receiving antenna was placed at a distance of 3 meters from the EUT. The EUT was set on an insulating table in the OATS site and rotated through 360 degrees to determine the worst case EUT orientation. The antenna was then positioned vertical and horizontal to determine which antenna polarity orientation was worst case. Then certification data was recorded at all the frequencies from the fundamental to the 10th harmonic at an antenna height variation of from 1-4 meters. 2.8 Reporting Measurement Data See data sheets and plots in Attachment B. 2.9 Radiated Emissions Data The frequency and amplitude of the tuned frequency of the EUT along with the frequencies th and amplitudes of the harmonics up to the 7 harmonic are reported in the data sheets in Attachment B. This information is plotted against the limit of section 15.231 of FCC Part 15 subpart B. The polarization of the antenna for each measurement is also recorded. The Final Level, expressed in dBuV/m, is arrived at by taking the reading from the spectrum analyzer (Level dBuV) and adding the antenna correction factor and cable loss factor (Factor dB) and subtracting the preamp gain. This result then has the FCC limit subtracted from it to provide the margin which gives the tabular data as shown in the data sheets in Attachment B. Example: Frequency Level + Factor = Corr Data - FCC Limit = Margin (MHz) (dBuV) + (dB) = (dBuV/m) - (dBuV/m) = (dB) 100.0 20.6 + 11.0 = 31.6 - 43.5 = -11.9 2.10 Operating Frequency Data for Intentional Radiators All operating frequencies and harmonic frequencies and ambient temperature at which all data was taken at is recorded in the data sheets in Attachment B. 2.11 Summary of Results INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATION SERVICES, INC.

The EUT passed the requirements of FCC Part 15 Subpart B, Section 15.109 with a minimum passing margin of –8.2109 dBuV/m at 437.166 Mhz. No modifications were necessary to accomplish this compliance. INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATION SERVICES, INC.

LaCrosse Technology, Ltd. Model: HFS 301-WS 433.92 Mhz Receiver Temperature: 80 Deg F. Humidity: 66 % R.H. Test Technician: Gerald Heinen Center Frequency: 433.92 Mhz Preliminary tests were performed on antenna polarities of Vertical and Horizontal. Horizontal was the worst case so all data was taken with an antenna polarity of Horizontal. Initial testing was performed in the anechoic shield room to determine if there were any other spurious emissions other than the fundamental and its harmonics. No other emissions were found. Certification testing was performed at the OATS site with an antenna distance of 3 meters and the EUT at 90 Degrees to the antenna. The limit for section 15.109 is 100 uV/m from 30-88 Mhz, 150 uV/m from 88-216, 200 uV/m from 216-960 Mhz and 500 uV/m above 960 Mhz. All data is taken with the required Quasi-Peak Detector.
