Do not assume that a TCB is an extension of the FCC. Think of a TCB as a outsourced subcontractor reviewing reports. They are not allowed to interpret the Rules. If there is a question regarding interpretation, they, the TCB, will have recourse to the FCC.
End of Story. John Shinn, P.E. Manager, Laboratory Operations Sanmina Homologation Services -----Original Message----- From: owner-emc-p...@majordomo.ieee.org [mailto:owner-emc-p...@majordomo.ieee.org]On Behalf Of umbdenst...@sensormatic.com Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2001 2:08 PM To: emc-p...@majordomo.ieee.org; stu...@timcoengr.com Subject: RE: one more thing about duty cycle... Who is the final authority? It would seem to me that this would be the one who wrote the rules -- the FCC. So if you are audited and questioned about the correct handling of factors, you merely produce the FCC generated instructions and show that you comply with the instructions. End of issue. After all, a TCB is an extension of the FCC.
