I'm not sure if I would agree on this.  Any CONSUMER device running above 1
MHz (this I am not sure about), should have approval.  All the approval
means is that the device is not suppose to be radiating emissions that could
interfere with other devices...like medical devices, etc.  But, as I drive
around, my various radio gear (2M, public service, 10M, etc) that I have in
my truck, can hear leaky stuff.  Outside one office...it nails one of the
county emergency channels.

And...there are allot of commercial devices that are not approved...take my
word for it...I've seen em all the time.

Yes.  Any electronic device sold in the US must meet FCC Rules!
