Gary, >from all of the info I got so far, including talking for about an hour to TCB reviewer, you have the following 2 options:
1. Certify as wireless device and DoC as digital/Class B/composite/ peripheral device. 2. Certify both parts, as you mentioned make a small addition to your wireless certification. Some TCB will simply include it under original part C/wireless certification, some will issue a separate certificate (never saw one, but I guess it is out there, no separate ID). There could be potential cost increase.

If you have a certified Wireless device installed in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. You still need to do the standard FCC and EU emissions tests, and I believe you also need to test the intentional signal for amplitude and width – but you can then rely on the wireless devices License process rather than going through all of the intentional radiator tests such as drift and stability. So its only a small adder to your test and certification process. In your paper work you would indicate the intentional radiating devices liscense (or something of that sort) Correct or way off base?
