The requirement for receivers depend on the classification
of the receiver. As you may know most ETSI standards
classify a receiver or send/receive combination
into 3 classes, depending on the amount of hinder
their failure may cause, in terms of
1 serious problem with risk for user (cellulars / marine / rescue equipment
etc)
2 problems, easy to overcome (walki talkies....)
3 failure causes no problem (car keyers babyphones etc)
In Class 3 most tests do not need to be carried out.
Some assessment need to be made however.
When reading the text however, i cannot stop thinking that the authors
thought of receivers being part of a transceiver combi, and not
stand alone receivers. There is no reason however to
exclude those receivers that upon failing may cause harm
to a certain user or environment.
In my opinion, commercial broadcast receivers for consumer
use are definitely to be excluded (for now).
The notification aspect is definitely only for intentional
radiators, the scope of this may be taken wide, however.
I personnally would never even think of notifying a radio
receiver to the authorities. None of their business , and...
Notification is related to effective use of the spectrum,
unless your receiver is intentionally radiating, no
impact on spectrum is to be expected.

Subject: RE: RTTE - receive only equipment
Good question Amund. I found nothing in the Directive that provides a clear
direction. I think that sound of silence from the rest of the group means
that no one knows the answer. I checked the UK's notification form and there
is only one place where they ask about the receiver:
"Duplex direction (if applicable)
This should state simplex, ½ duplex or duplex operation. If duplex please
quote, where applicable, transmit and receive frequencies and/or duplex
split."
It's a mystery.

Subject: RTTE - receive only equipment
As far as I understand the RTTED, the directive also applies to radio
receive-only equipment. But are we required to notify it for each member
state within EU, if it use non-harmonized frequency bands ?
