SB QST @ ARRL $ARLB085
ARLB085 RF effects guidelines
QST de W1AW
ARRL Bulletin 85 ARLB085
From ARRL Headquarters
Newington CT August 6, 1993
To all radio amateurs
The FCC has extended until November 13 the comment date on a
proposal, in ET Docket 93-62, that the Commission adopt new
guidelines for evaluating the environmental effects of
radiofrequency radiation. The new guidelines would be those already
adopted by the American National Standards Institute and the
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers.
The FCC said that a request for an extension of the deadline made by
the National Association of Broadcasters had been supported by a
number of other interested parties. The NAB said it asked for the
extension in order to be able to complete a study to develop
non-measurement-based techniques for complying with the FCC's
proposed new RF exposure guidelines.
The NAB said that its study would benefit both the FCC and those
whom the new guidelines would affect, by making it easier to
evaluate compliance with the new guidelines, which the NAB said are
significantly different from the old.
The original comment deadline was August 13.
