RE: [WISPA] Foreign Antennas
The matter of antenna certification rules was something that was clarified by the FCC OET (Office of Engineering & Technology) & FCC Enforcement Bureau at WiNOG last February in Chicago...(certification aside, the policies of the Enforcement Bureau is what really matters to most, IMO =) Copies of the original FCC presentations can be found online: http://www.wispnog.com/chicago_2005/sessions.htm A summary of the FCC discussion can be found on page 5 of our March 2005 newsletter (a thanks to Butch E and Forrest C for their nice write-ups last year) http://www.wispnog.com/chicago_2005/sessions.htm -Charles --- WiNOG Austin, TX March 13-15, 2006 http://www.winog.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kurt Fankhauser Sent: Friday, January 27, 2006 7:57 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: RE: [WISPA] Foreign Antennas Antenna has to be certified as long as the radio, and then together they both have to be certified.
