Amund,Ted does a nice job of summarizing the US situation
with regard to the legality of the NRTL certification for products installed
during construction, including remodeling, which is inspected in the US.
There is also the issue for retail products here in the

Part 15 provides for AM Broadcast band 'micropower' transmissions as well,
though it uses final input power and antenna size restriction (as opposed
