That text doesn't say that *anyone* must sign! People based in UK have to comply with the above, but other people need only comply with the somewhat different approach indicated in the Guidelines and Directives. The UK Regulations were written before the Commission was asked about OEM supply and other less simple cases, and have not been revised. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
