Is the Sekonic L-758DR designated FCC for use in the USA?

I believe so. However, you must be sure you get the correct frequency range for USA. The unit I purchased came with the unit for USA frequencies but this does not work with Australian flash lights.

Yes, according to the Sekonic website: "To comply with local broadcast regulations, Sekonic wireless systems sold in the various markets around the world are designed to operate at different frequencies. When purchasing and/or installing a transmitter module or using the meter with a receiver, be sure that the meter, module and receiver are designed to be used in your location and use the same frequency. The FCC designation indicates the meter and module are designed for operation in the USA/North American market. Frequencies: CH 1 to 16: 344.0 MHz; CH 17 to 32: 346.5 to 354.0MHz The CE designation indicates the meter and module are designed for operation in European countries. Frequencies: CH 1 to 16: 433.62 MHz; CH 17 to 32: 434.22MHz When purchasing and/or installing a transmitter module or using the meter with a receiver, be sure that the meter, module and receiver are designed to be used in your location and use the same frequency. The wireless flash triggering system used in Sekonic meters consists of two parts that are designed to be used together and operate only at a specific frequency. Do not install a CE marked module into an FCC marked meter or FCC marked module into a CE marked meter as this will produce a unit that is not compatible with either frequency."

Yes, it is. There are two versions, one for CE and one for FCC. For example, see http://www.sekonic.com/others/aboutradiotriggering.aspx . On mine, the serial number starts with the FCC version (JH12). Any questions, I have found the Sekonic people very easy to reach and deal with. Hope you enjoy the light meter, if you get it.

I am Not sure and I have not looked at the present time. there is no real reason why I should look for AFC C label if you are looking to start trouble you may want to think otherwise there are plenty of radio operators who have these radios and are not concerned with that requirement. so at this time I am declining to answer your question you can contact the manufacturer of the equipment to find outFWD spac

The model referenced is the VHF/UHF model. This model would be a good choice. I am assuming you are aware that an amateur radio license is required to transmit with this radio in the ham bands.

Not unless you unlock the radio. An that is against FCC regulation's. Could get into trouble. But contact the FCC.

I looked on the back of mine and SKR-4200U is listed as the the MODEL. Here are the other numbers on the back. CODE: 903U71210101 FCC ID: GJJSKR-4200U P/N: GTU-0033 S/N: 0DRY463985 KR2. Hope this helps! :-)

Mohansj - The CL80109 accessory handset was engineered and approved for North American use. We do not recommend use of it outside of North America.

In Colorado, US I found the Tecsun PL880 useless. I could not pick up any stations on SW or LW, even with the supplied longwire antenna. Maybe it is because I live near some mountains in CO, but I was not happy with it at all and returned it after several days of effort to receive any shortwave station.

Yes an amateur radio license is required to transmit with this unit on the ham bands. I don't think it is FCC approved for use on other bands

2 parts to this answer......the radio is not Part 90 FCC Certified, so technically it's illegal to use on those frequencies. Will the radio key up VHF/UHF Commercial/Public Service Repeaters, yes it will with the right pl or ctcss tones. It's difficult to program by hand, but takes 15 seconds with the usb programming cable and CHIRP software which is free to download.

Yes. FCC license is required based on frequencies used and transmission power. Anything over .5 watts needs a licence and most frequencies that are not in the range of family service radio frequencies need a license. See the FCC website for more details on what you can use without a license.

Thanks for your question. The manufacturers we represent only provide us products configured for USA use. Thanks.

try this link it converts and it is from FCC http://www.fcc.gov/mb/audio/bickel/DDDMMSS-decimal.html

The one I ordered and received is not a US based version. It does have the cut out for the antenna.

The Beldin F5D7050 I got through this Amazon posting was FCC ID K7S-F5D7050B. If it is a concern for you, I would ask the question of any Seller posting I was thinking about buying before buying. Hope it helps.

The newly banned frequencies are 698-806 MHz (the 700 MHz band) formerly used by some catv companies before the digital conversion, now used by emergency agencies such as police and fire. Banned frequency electronics are basically not sold new in the us anymore.. These mics are below that frequency, not affected by the ban, and a ok to buy and use. I have these, and they are fantastic for the money.

Loving the technical debates here, they are proper for folks with such great technical interests. That being said, we are considering buying these to use on a cruise in the Caribbean. Obviously, FCC regulations don't apply outside the U.S. and local island regulations apply based on territorial waters, I suppose. Any comments on maritime regulations? What about practical usage ship-board, both from a signal quality standpoint and an unintentional interference with ship operations standpoint? Thanks!

Apparently not. Covers those frequencies, but it would be illegal to transmit with this radio and it's not FCC cleared for that purpose. This is a common problem with many of these Chinese radios. For example, the BAOFENG 888's are very well-built and INCREDIBLY inexpensive radios, which are illegal to use as configured in the USA. They can be reprogrammed with cable/software and must be to be operated legally.
