Charlie,current mandatory version is 1.7.1. Future (2015) is 1.8.1. Both harmonized. There is an application note in question which describes additional requirements. Only as of last month this Note became mandatory. Note in OJ from 2009 was simply stating what actual tests been developed in draft 1.8.1. Should the "note" be treated as any other new version of the standard, allowing grace period? Better question: how does one challenge or ask for "official" clarification on the matter? Mark

Harmonised Standards are, in effect, mandatory unless you use a NB – and even then, you can’t choose not to apply them because you don’t like them From: Charlie Blackham Sent: 28 November 2012 08:47 To: 'John Woodgate'; [email protected] Subject: RE: [PSES] EN 300 328 V1.8.1 new Adaptive equipment requirements UNLIKE many other Directives, the R&TTE Directive REQUIRES the use of a Notified Body where Radio Spectrum Standards are applied in full.

Like other Directives, the RTTE Directive contains no mandatory requirement to apply harmonized standards and carry out tests (except in the case of Full Quality Control). -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
