The attached link gives guidelines on how to inform users of the DOC. It even
offers translations, in the 11 official languages of the EU, of a short form
declaration that is to be given in the user manual.
The complete DOC is to be made available, in print, on CD ROM, or on the web.
Rich,
Just a question. If you are not going to put the D of C in the users
manual to satisfy the RTTE directive requirement of having a D of C with the
product, is there another more elegant place to put it. Any other
suggestions would be interesting to note. How about the idea of putting an

It was my understanding that one could only draw 80% of the max

Doug, I respectfully disagree with your general statement that A copy of
the D of C that states the directives complied with must be placed in the
user manual. There may be a particular directive that may have this
requirement, but I don't beleive that it is the LV, EMC nor the RTTE
Directives.

True enough. However, the question was about uses of the spectrum below 450

And the answer is
The D of C must be signed by the responsible person designated by the
manufacturer. The signatory does not have to be located in the EU.
The manufacturer must designate a representative in the EU who will hold
the certificate and the technical file.
Good People
Several (on off line) have asked why. Mostly because some agency engineers
do not believe that thermal grease accurately transfers thernal
information. I did some tests, and discovered that there could (occasionaly)
be an atypical attachment that did not result in accurate data. And
On page 35 of the Commission's Guide to the implementation of the directives
