Guys, Kazimier replied to me saying that he had trouble finding the handbook. (see his attached email)
Apparantly, I sent Kazimier (and possibly others) on a wild goose chase. My humble apologies (bow). The document that I downloaded was called "The Australian Spectrum Management Agency Handbook for Suppliers." or simply the "Handbook for Suppliers" Once upon a time, the Australian Spectrum Management Agency (SMA) managed the Australian Framework for EMC. Their website contained the link to the document. Since the time that I downloaded that document, the Australian Communications Authority (ACA) has taken over administration of the Australian Framework for EMC. So, I too have gone back to re-visit the links that I once used only to find that they all point to the ACA. I can no longer find the link that I used to download this very handy document. Too bad. I considered it a shining example of why I admired the Australian implementation of compliance. At one time, all you had to do was download the handbook, follow it and start shipping product. I'm disappointed. I would hope that the ACA still produces the handbook, perhaps under another name. I have not found it yet. I'll wait until my Document Control office opens tomorrow morning and look at my hardcopy of the handbook, I believe that it will point me to a European equivalent to AS/NZS 4251.1. Talk to you tomorrow...
