These commodities, technology or software were exported from the United

States in accordance with the Export Administration Regulations. Diversion

contrary to U.S. law is prohibited.

Sea Tel Marine Stabilized Antenna systems are manufactured in the United

States of America.

Sea Tel is an ISO 9001:2008 registered company.

Certificate Number 13690 issued March 14, 2011.

R&TTE

The Series 10 Family of Marine Stabilized Antenna Pedestals with DAC-2202 or DAC-2302

Antenna Control Unit complies with the requirements of directive 1999/5/EC of the European

Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 1999 on Radio equipment and Telecommunication

Terminal Equipment. A copy of the R&TTE Declaration of Conformity for this equipment is

contained in this manual.

The Sea Tel Series 09 & 10 antennas will meet the off-axis EIRP spectral density envelope set forth in FCC 47

C.F.R. § 25.222(a)(1) when the input power density limitations, listed in our FCC Declaration, are met..

These antenna systems also contain FCC compliant supervisory software to continuously monitor the pedestal

pointing accuracy and use it to control the “Transmit Mute” function of the satellite modem to satisfy the

provisions of FCC 47 C.F.R. § 25.222(a)(l)(iii).
