RE: To RTTE or not to RTTE
Dave, All radio transmitting devices are bound by the RTTE Directive. Check Annex I for the exempted devices. I think you will find that your device is not exempt. I agree with Leslie on the appropriate Standards to apply. Don’t forget about the product safety component of the Directive which is required of all devices that are subject to RTTE Directive.
