Shipping and lead time: Standalone requested-area programming PDFs are custom built and may take up to one business week to arrive. There is no shipping fee for programming PDFs. Completed PDFs are delivered by email.
Programming disclaimer: Programming is provided as a convenience based on customer-provided locations and publicly available information at the time of build. Frequencies, repeater offsets, tones, access rules, and repeater availability may change. RAIN Works does not guarantee that any repeater is active, reachable, open, or legal for every operator to transmit on.
Requested-area programming PDF file: The standalone requested-area programming PDF is a digital reference product only. The customer is responsible for providing accurate location information for each requested area. Requests must be limited to specific cities, counties, addresses, or clearly defined local areas. Entire states or broad statewide requests are not accepted.
Range / emergency-use disclaimer: Radio range is not guaranteed. Range depends on terrain, obstructions, antenna position, repeater availability, battery charge, radio settings, interference, weather, and operator skill. RAIN Works Standalone programming PDFs are not a substitute for 911, cellular service, satellite communication, public safety systems, or professional emergency equipment.
Ham license / lawful operation: RAIN Works Standalone programming PDFs are intended for lawful radio use by properly licensed or authorized operators. The buyer is responsible for knowing and following FCC rules, amateur radio rules, local laws, and all frequency restrictions.
No unauthorized transmitting: Do not transmit on public safety, law enforcement, fire/EMS, aviation, marine, military, business, GMRS, FRS, MURS, or other regulated services unless you have the proper license, authorization, and legally appropriate equipment for that service.
Receive-only channels: Some channels may be programmed for receive-only monitoring. Being able to receive a frequency does not mean the customer is allowed to transmit on it.
Not professional public safety equipment: RAIN Works Standalone programming PDFs are hobby/amateur radio communication guides. They are not intended to fill a role replacing public safety radios, military equipment, certified life-safety gear, or a replacement for professionally maintained emergency communication systems with hobbyist radios.
