All measurements contained in this application were conducted in accordance with ANSI C63.4 Methods of Measurement of Radio Noise Emissions, 2007. The instrumentation utilized for the measurements conforms to the ANSI C63.4 standard for EMI and Field Strength Instrumentation. Some accessories are used to increase sensitivity and prevent overloading of the measuring instrument. Calibration checks are performed regularly on the instruments, and all accessories including the high pass filter, preamplifier and cables. 1.1 Modifications No modifications were made during testing. 1.2 Related Submittal(s)/Grant(s) This is an original certification submission. 1.3 Test Methodology Radiated testing was performed according to the procedures in ANSI C63.4-2007.

With the antenna installed, the receiver indicator was used to determine optimal reception. The EUT’s intermediate frequencies (IF), local oscillators (LO), crystal oscillators, and harmonics of each were investigated. Conducted emissions were measured from the AC port of the charger. All modes were investigated and tested, including standby mode and scanning mode. The final radiated data was taken with the EUT locked to a set frequency. 2.2 Exercising the EUT The DJ-175T is a VHF FM transceiver designed to function at the following frequency range: TX 144-147.995 MHz; RX 136-173.995 MHz. The transmitter portion of the transceiver is subject to the FCC/IC amateur radio rules and was not tested. The following receiver frequencies were tested: 136, 154.4975, and 173.995 MHz. In order to activate the receiver circuitry, a signal was transmitted from a signal generator. This allowed the EUT to function in its typical state throughout the course of all testing. 2.3 Test System Details The test sample was received on August 7, 2008. The FCC Identifiers for all equipment, plus descriptions of all cables used in the tested system, are shown in the table that follows. Page 6 of 52

The EUT was assembled on a wooden table 80 centimeters high. Power was fed to the EUT through a 50-ohm/50 microhenry Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN). The EUT LISN was fed power through an A.C. filter box on the outside of the shielded enclosure. The filter box and EUT LISN housing are bonded to the ground plane of the shielded enclosure. A second LISN, the peripheral LISN, provides isolation for the EUT test peripherals. This peripheral LISN was also fed A.C. power. A metal power outlet box, which is bonded to the ground plane and electrically connected to the peripheral LISN, powers the EUT host peripherals. The spectrum analyzer was connected to the A.C. line through an isolation transformer. The 50-ohm output of the EUT LISN was connected to the spectrum analyzer input through a Solar 100 kHz high-pass filter. The filter is used to prevent overload of the spectrum analyzer from noise below 100 kHz. Conducted emission levels were measured on each current-carrying line with the spectrum analyzer operating in the CISPR quasi-peak mode (or peak mode if applicable). The analyzer's 6 dB bandwidth was set to 9 kHz. A video filter less than 10 times the resolution bandwidth is not used. Average measurements are performed in linear mode using a 10 kHz resolution bandwidth, a 1 Hz video bandwidth, and by increasing the sweep time in order to obtain a calibrated measurement. The emission spectrum was scanned from 150 kHz to 30 MHz. The highest emission amplitudes relative to the appropriate limits were measured and have been recorded. 3.2 Test Limits Class A Line Conducted Emissions Limit (dBµV) Frequency (MHz) Quasi-Peak Average 0.15 to 0.50 79 66 0.50 to 30.0 73 60 Class B Line Conducted Emissions Limit (dBµV) Frequency (MHz) Quasi-Peak Average 0.15 to 0.50 66 to 56 56 to 46 0.50 to 5.00 56 46 5.00 to 30.00 60 50 Page 9 of 52

The physical arrangement of the test system and associated cabling was varied in order to determine the effect on the EUT's emissions in amplitude, direction, and frequency. This process was repeated during final radiated emissions measurements on the open-field range, at each frequency, in order to ensure that maximum emission amplitudes were attained. Final radiated emissions measurements were made on the three meter, open-field test site. The EUT was placed on a nonconductive turntable approximately 80 centimeters above the ground plane. The spectrum was examined from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz using a spectrum analyzer, a quasi-peak adapter, and EMCO log periodic and biconical antenna. In order to gain sensitivity, a preamplifier was connected in series between the antenna and the input of the spectrum analyzer. At each frequency, the EUT was rotated 360 degrees, and the antenna was raised and lowered from one to four meters in order to determine the maximum emission levels. Measurements were taken using both horizontal and vertical antenna polarizations. The spectrum analyzer's 6 dB bandwidth was set to 120 kHz, and the analyzer was operated in the CISPR quasi-peak detection mode. No video filter less than 10 times the resolution bandwidth was used. The second harmonic of the highest LO was tested. The highest emission amplitudes relative to the appropriate limit were measured and recorded in this report. Note: Rhein Tech Laboratories, Inc. has implemented procedures to minimize errors that occur from test instruments, calibration, procedures, and test setups. Test instrument and calibration errors are documented from the manufacturer or calibration lab. Rhein Tech implements the following procedures to minimize errors that may occur: yearly as well as daily calibration methods, technician training, and emphasis to employees on avoiding error.

Client: Alinco, Inc. 360 Herndon Parkway Model: DJ-175T Suite 1400 Standards: FCC 15.121 Herndon, VA 20170 & IC RSS-215 http://www.rheintech.com Report: 2008118 5 FCC Rules and Regulations Part 15 §15.121(b) - 38 dB Rejection Test A signal generator was connected to the receiver under test, and the output of the receiver was connected to an audio analyzer. An FM signal was applied to the receiver antenna input with a 1 kHz tone modulated at 5 kHz deviation, and adjusted with the audio analyzer to produce a 12 dB SINAD. This was done across the receiver bands to determine a reference level. The reference level used was that with the highest sensitivity in all of the bands. The output of the signal generator was then adjusted to a level 136 dB above the reference level established, and set to a low, medium, and high frequency in both the mobile and base cellular bands: the mobile band being 824.04 MHz-848.97 MHz, and the base band being 869.04 MHz-893. 97 MHz. The squelch of the receiver was then set to a minimum threshold level, and scanning begun from the lowest to the highest channel. Whenever the receiver stopped and “un-squelched”, that frequency was noted as a response. After all the frequencies of responses were noted, the signal generator was set to measure the sensitivity at each of these response frequencies. This measurement was the reference sensitivity for the particular received frequency measured. The audio analyzer measurement was used to measure the 12 dB SINAD, which is the spurious value. The difference between the reference sensitivity and the spurious value is the rejection ratio and must be at least 38 dB. HP 8648C Signal Generator Antenna Audio HP 8903B Audio Analyzer (1 kHz tone/ input output 8 kHz FM deviation) EUT Frequencies used on the signal generator were 824.04, 836.50, and 848.97 MHz for the mobile band, and 869.04, 881.50, and 893.97 MHz for the base band. The DJ-175T unit reference level used was –79 dBm from the signal generator. The DJ-175T unit was scanned on all specified operating frequency ranges, per manufacturer’s specifications. Signals that were noted as responses were checked with the signal generator off. If they were still present, they were determined to be ambient signals and removed from the response list. No signals were detected for the 38 dB rejection test requirements. Page 15 of 52
