By this Report and Order, the Commission amends its regulations to consolidate and harmonize the marketing rules, as proposed in the Notice of Proposed Rule Making in this proceeding. This amendment permits radio frequency devices, prior to authorization or a determination of compliance with the technical standards, to be announced, advertised, displayed, and operated for compliance testing, demonstrated at trade shows, or evaluated at the manufacturer's facilities. In addition, non-consumer devices that have not been tested or authorized can be offered for conditional sale or supplied to the user for evaluation or compliance testing. The equipment authorizations regulations are also amended to provide clarification, to resolve inconsistencies, to remove unnecessary restrictions and obsolete regulations, and to incorporate several interpretations. These amendments will stimulate economic growth by permitting products to be developed on a cooperative basis by manufacturers and retailers, and by potentially decreasing the time for a product to reach the marketplace.
