Happens I agree with you, John. But the economics of the proposal were so
attractive that somebody persuaded the FCC to make it -- and we all had a
good long while to comment on on it, too.  I think the bottom line is, if
these things WERE tested, they'd fail with some regularity, but not as
often and not as badly as the ordinary "clones" used to. That is, I think,
some improvement.

The Commission has taken the approach that if there are no complaints,
there is no problem. Since people will put up with mountains of
inconvenience rather than stand up and be heard, this has lead to the
OFFICIAL conclusion that there is no interference.

But I tell all my Ham Radio friends (I'm KA5S) to complain EVERY TIME they
receive interference.  Don't know if they do.  I'm working on a very
widespread case (on my own nickel -- it's for me) right now which I believe
to be power-company carrier-current harmonics.  There's a LOT of RFI out
here, and it is getting worse!

Just out of curiosity, how come "assembled from FCC Class B compliant
components" seems to fly but CE + CE = CE obviously does not?

What am I missing here?  

BTW, I don't have much faith taking a piece of equipment that has been
"assembled from FCC Class B compliant components" to a test lab and expect
it to pass.
