CISPR 22 is not being amended to do away with the OATS. And a FAR is not contemplated. Now, the early work on CISPR 32 is allowing the FAR as an alternative. CD should be out "soon".

If a product's compliance is in question, results from an OATS will take precedence over any other test site such as FARs, T-Cell, etc.. Right? OR, does the data from a FAR correlate so well with an OATS what they are considered equivalent? Brian Quite right, so I asked Martin and he replied: I expect OATS will continue to be used alongside FARs for many years decades) to come. What the UK lab may have been intimating was that in certain localities (most of the developed world) OATS are subject to a lot of ambient interference so customers may be attracted to labs that have FARs.
