Hi all,
I have a product we are about to sell that is run by a PIC. I have received
mixed and sometimes contradictory information about our FCC testing
responsibilities (even form the FCC itself). The final word, I know, is in
CFR-47 (5 volumes) but does someone have pointers to some
human-understandable sources of information? I already know that our product
falls under Verification requirements as a non-intentional radiator. I have
been told that "components" don't need to meet FCC rules but systems
do....what defines the difference? Is there an "FCC Rules for Dummies" book
out there? Any help is appreciated.

If anyone is interested, our product is described in the Flow Cytometry
section of our web site (URL below). Thanks.
