Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Posted February 22, 2006 Dear All, Please be aware that with or without State Law, Federal laws which supersede all State and local laws already are on the books. The laws governing RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) have been used in order to confiscate Rife-type equipment in the past and will likely be used again as there is within the law significant room for interpretation as to what is " Unacceptable RFI " . Please read: As with restrictive antenna ordinances, the FCC, through a directive from Congress, has preempted any concurrent state or local regulation of RFI pursuant to the provisions of §302(a) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. The legal cite is: 47 USC §302(a) and it provides that the: Commission may, consistent with the public interest, convenience, and necessity, make reasonable regulations (1) governing the interference potential of devices which in their operation are capable of emitting radio frequency energy by radiation, conduction, or other means in sufficient degree to cause harmful interference to radio communications; and (2) establishing minimum performance standards for home electronic equipment and systems to reduce their susceptibility to interference from radio frequency energy. Such regulations shall be applicable to the manufacture, import, sale, offer for sale, or shipment of such devices and home electronic equipment and systems, and to the use of such devices. Your equipment is only as safe as the government decides. Which is NOT AT ALL. Yours, Ian MacLeod, Ph.D. --------------------------------- What are the most popular cars? Find out at Yahoo!
