I would opt for the simulator if possible. If it's an installation, it doesn't have to be tested as a whole. But Article 4 must still be observed (actual interference must not occur). > >Finely skirting the issue, I know. But if you don't bring the thing in you >door then you need not worry about it. It's not 'finely skirting'; it's understanding how the Directive applies in such circumstances. And you CAN bring it into your premises, provided you do NOTHING to it. You must INVOICE all the individual items of equipment separately. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
