Geeze the FCC should do a lookup of "FM TRANSMITTER"  on Ebay  and go 
after all those guys.... manufacturers  and sellers of these 1 watt and 
4 watt transmitters( non-Ramseys)
Personally  I think Ramsey is wrong  Just bad business. they should pay 
the fine. re-organize  and get their stuff Type Accepted which is what 
they should have done in the first place.
Then this would have been a moot point.. Now as for Niccom.. I have one 
of their consoles at an LPFM. Hey it works well  I have no complaints.. 
and their stuff is Type Accepted.
