I agree that time spend on 98/13/EC was a questionable investment. Nobody so far has explained to me what the rational was for its publication. I am sure there was one and it probably had to do with fixing fences so no cattle could escape while they were working what we've first got to know and love as the CTE Directive and later became the R&TTE Directive. Versions of 98/.../EC have been debated for the last two years and significant parts have survived all along but have no presence in 98/13/EC. However, if you're more of a radio man, than 98/.../EC is for you, and you'd better get to know it intimately. Ciao, Vic
