Wrong. If the cat's butt emits RF, it's regulated by the FCC. But, digital
equipment used only in transportation vehicles - busses, cars, aircraft -
and equipment used in appliances - HVAC equipment mentioned specifically -
are exempt from Radio Frequency Device regulations. The rule says "....are
exempt from the specific technical standards and other requirements
contained in this part. The operator of the exempted device shall be
required to stop operating the device upon a finding by the Commission or
its representative that the device is causing harmful interference".


Interesting. I've never heard that before. Thanks for the correction.

Not that that doesn't suck...
