The DoC procedure was implemented to speed class B computers and their
peripherals to market.  The DoC is a "self-certification" procedure, i.e.,
no submission of data or fees to FCC, as was required in almost all cases
for class B home computer/peripheral equipment prior to DoC rules.

Class A *never* has required submission to FCC, so a class A DoC does not
compute, so to speak.  FCC class A compliance is and has always been under
the Verification program, itself a "self-certification" or "scout's honor"
type procedure.

Hope this helps.  Labelling issues always seem to be in the top 3
categories of faqs.
