“Lazyboy”
You may not have, and, as a licenced Amateur, I am sure you would not because you know that you should not, and that there are better and more challenging ways to talk to your faraway friends – but I don’t think that some CB operators are as “conscientious” J.

To me an amateur is not a HAM, but that is a matter of language I suppose. My example showed a (spiced up) example of lack of immunity in a professional audio installation , that due pragmatic testing, too cables with average screening properties and a substantial power output in a "room" with may-i-say very specific acoustic properties, lead to an extremely interfering situation.

In the late 1950's, the USA FCC re-allocated the 27 MHz region (called 11 meter band) from amateur use to a new "citizens" band. (I don't know how many other countries followed that example.) This was created from the existing amateur 10-meter band, making amateurs rather unhappy. This 11-meter Citizens Band eventually degenerated into unregulated technical and operational chaos. If you had a device exhibiting a susceptible response of a "blue angel calling a red devil" and not something like "WB6WSN calling..." then the source was not an amateur but an unregulated CB'er. Please, hams are sensitive about being the assumed source of interference.

What is a metal enclosure, and when is it not enclosure ? Metalized plastic: is not metal but might be as good Painted metal: complies but may have substantial potential difference between parts If heavy interference exists, 4 braid connection points are not enough, and inferior braided coax and signal cables is all over the market. This is an example of economic drive "fast cheap & pragmatic testing" and this exemption clause is a recipe for problems in the field. I remember a customer of mine building PA systems for a church application ( = 55103-2) Final testing was ok, and the system worked like a charm. The first Sunday in real use, the vicar got an unexpected reply on its questions to the mighty when a local 27 MHz radio amateur switched on its transmitter and "preached" : "blue angel calling red devil "....

(probably the case!) Not all products have a metal case. Not all ports meet the definition of 'screened port'. Not all cables have braided screens/shields. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
