[EAS] Activity at the FCC

[Adrienne Abbott]

Does anyone really think the FCC can rewrite Part 11 in 60 days? We are
talking about the same agency that brought us the DTV transition--again and
again, and again...

Doubtful that the September date will hold.

Commission has yet to even issue an NPRM concerning changes
to part 11. Given that there is usually at least a 45 to 60
day cycle required AFTER an NPRM is issued before any rule
changes are effective, it seems unduly optimistic that there
will be any firm rules in time to start up a manufacturing
cycle to get equipment out by September.

On top of the apparent lack of action by FEMA to issue a
list of CAP approved devices from their tests...
