FCC and IC:
This device complies with parts 15 and 90 of the FCC rules. This device must be operated as supplied by
Xetawave LLC. Any changes or modifications made to the device without the express written approval
of Xetwave LLC may void the user’s authority to operate the device.
Caution:
The model number XETA1 has a maximum transmitted output power of 1500mW in the 150 to 174 MHz
bands. It is recommended that the transmit antenna be kept at least 42.2 cm away from nearby persons
to satisfy FCC RF requirements.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful energy and interference. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, the
Xeta1 may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2) Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
3) Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
4) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Note: Whenever any Xetawave LLC module is placed inside an enclosure, a label must be placed on the
outside of that enclosure which includes the module’s FCC ID.

WARNING
These radio systems shall be installed by a RF/radio professional familiar with the applicable rules.
Installation of all antennas shall be performed in a manner that will provide at least the MPE Distance
from the direction of maximum radiation, to any physical space where humans may exist, and consistent
with the settings in the applicable antenna installation compliance section.
Introduction
The Xeta Radio family is a small form-factor data radio designed for transmitting low to moderate speed
data across distances of up to 100 miles. Thus, this radio family has a much longer range than Wi-Fi or
other short distance radios, but at a lower data rate capacity. The radio also has several unique features
including the ability to operate from 150 to 174 MHz. The radio has a guaranteed delivery licensed
mode. In fact, since the radio is software defined, as changing environmental conditions can cause
variations in performance, the radio will automatically adjust its operating parameters to maximize
performance. Thus, if the signal quality degrades, instead of stopping all transmissions, the radio will
