Brian --

I'm also interested in hearing from our group on the FCC question.

Regarding Europe: be careful on applying 55011. Read the scope closely. It is 
my belief that it applies to a much narrower subset of industrial machinery 
than the generic heavy industrial standards 61000-6-2 and 61000-6-4.
