Well, I was pretty clear that this is addressed primarily as harmful
interference, irrespective of compliance with the emissions limits. The Part 15
rules do not require certification of ttis type of unintentional emitter, so
there are no "certification rules." Older systems were brought forward under
the Verification authorization of the rules. Under rules changes from some time
ago, these unintentional emitters can be authorized under either Certification
or under a Suppliers Declaration of Conformity. Most use the SDoC process.
Under the rules, the manufacturer must meet the authorization requirements,
have a design that meets the emissions limits and meet certain marketing
requirements. The rules make the operator of any device regulated by the FCC
responsible for correcting any harmful interference it may cause.
It is generally much easier to establish harmful interference than it is to
establish a violation of the emissions rules, so it is on this basis that most
complaints originate.
