1 Scope
The present document covers the minimum characteristics considered necessary in order to avoid harmful interference
and to make acceptable use of the available frequencies.
The present document applies to equipment with integral antennas, used in angle modulation systems in the land mobile
service, operating on radio frequencies between 30 MHz and 1 000 MHz, with channel separations of 12,5 kHz, 20 kHz
and 25 kHz, and is intended primarily for analogue speech.
In the present document different requirements are given for the different radio frequency bands, channel separations,
environmental conditions and types of equipment, where appropriate.
The present document is complementary to EN 300 086 [i.7], which covers radio equipment with an internal or external
RF connector, for use in the land mobile service.

1 Scope
The present document covers the minimum characteristics considered necessary in order to avoid harmful interference
and to make acceptable use of the available frequencies.
The present document applies to equipment with integral antennas, used in angle modulation systems in the land mobile
service, operating on radio frequencies between 30 MHz and 1 000 MHz, with channel separations of 12,5 kHz, 20 kHz
and 25 kHz, and is intended primarily for analogue speech.
In the present document different requirements are given for the different radio frequency bands, channel separations,
environmental conditions and types of equipment, where appropriate.
The present document is complementary to EN 300 086 [i.7], which covers radio equipment with an internal or external
RF connector, for use in the land mobile service.
