Awesome.  Just make them very low.  Nobody ever suggested striving for 
crap.

Just off the top of my head, at "hobbyist level", based on some of my 
own experiments some twenty years ago...  -126dB @ 3" (inches) from 
source, maximum, at all frequencies I can detect, is a fair start. 
Less, of course, is better, nobody is suggesting an even spew of -126 
from DC to daylight.

One must wonder why the standards we have now seem to be, 'Produce 
something.  Now, make it spew garbage.  Perfect.  Market it- globally. 
You're welcome.'

How about...?  NO!  Clearly what we have now, has left us with what we 
have, which isn't working too well.

Oh, one other thing...  If none of the above flies, how about just 
reasonable active enforcement, retroactive to the 1980's?  We could pay 
off the deficit with fines alone, and think of the hundreds of millions 
of non-compliant devices we could have fun scrapping out!
