Hello Sandy, I just received a copy and scanned through it. As you had indicated, the core of the standard is the same. The calibration methodology is the same as EN 61000-4-3 1996. Annexes have been provided for rationale for the choice of modulation for tests, a section on the use of anechoic chambers with a discussion on problems caused by ferrite lining of chambers and possible solutions, and a discussion of illumination by the independent windows method.
If you test short range devices, EN 301489 is the product standard that specifies radiated immunity testing parameters, including the requirement above 1 GHz. This standard specifies the level and modulation. IEC 61000-4-3 2002 provides the guidance for calibration, set up, execution (with alternatives) and reporting.
