Bill In the context of "set top box", set generally refers to a TV set, and the box is a receiver/decoder/interface for either terrestrial, cable, or satellite services, that typically sits on top of the TV set, hence 'set top box'. Best regards

I've heard the term used to describe a number of different items that had quite different functions and all were commonly set on top of a box that they interfaced with.

It would be much easier that I know CISPR/EN/IEC standards. Many GB standards are identical or equivalent to the international standards. Thank you and look forward to your help.
