Actually, if you consider that there are two issues here. First, the TV and Radio manufacturers are required to no longer have a wide-open front end as was prevalent quite a few years ago. This single action by the FCC improved the immunity (decreased the susceptability) to incidental RF. Secondly, by requiring the label to say "must accept", eliminates a lot of complaints about LEGAL incidental as well as intentional radiators (you might also read that as easer to dismiss complaints).
It was a start.

Ha! You raise a good point since the FCC legally can but hasn't implemented an American version of immunity standards. The words "must accept" on the FCC labels of your effected devices are evident of it. Maybe some day we will have do immunity testing. - Doug McKean ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
