Tune-Up Procedure and Drive levels Block Diagram Complete Circuit Diagrams Instruction Book Internal Photographs of the Equipment Operating Description, Circuitry for Determining Frequency Non Disclosure Agreement Confidentiality of the User Manual is maintained by requiring that any party that is supplied a user manual must first sign a non-disclosure agreement. Currently only cellular system operators have access to these manuals. Internal photos are kept confidential by virtue of the fact that the end product is a non-
consumer product, certified and housed in a sealed enclosure, and is only accessible by trained /approved maintenance personnel. Further, the Applicant has spent substantial effort in developing this product, some aspects of which are deemed to be trade secret and proprietary. Having the subject information easily available to our competitors in this market would negate the advantage we have achieved by developing this product. Not protecting the details of the design will result in financial hardship.
