Default Is an Antenna Analyzer an FCC violation?


And for the nitpickers, yes if you hooked one to an antenna and left
it turned on for days, someone might start caring.


Hi Jim,

I'm not necessarily worried about interfering, disrupting or jamming other
receivers in the area, a fast sweeping 3 or 7 dbm CW would not likely
interfere. I am worried about what is legal and what is not legal.
Regulatory bodies such as the FCC/ITU do not use statements or issue
licenses under terms 'it's not likely to' or 'its not much of a concern',
they prefer to issue specific modulation types and field strengths.
