Chinese Labs Barred From Testing Equipment For FCC?

[Lscott]

This should be good to watch. Looks like there is a FCC rule change being proposed to bar Chinese Labs from doing FCC testing for certification on various electronic items, including radios. Maybe this will end up clamping down on radios that seems to violate FCC rules from being certified due to questionable testing results.

Could be interesting, thank you for sharing......you know my attitude toward CCR's though  Better late than never, and not amazed it has taken this long to reign in some of those products/manufacturers, some very "dirty" RF emitters in some cases.

Doing some testing with several series of Motorola radios myself soon.....how they operate in GPS and radar compromised environments. Using my own XPR6550/XPR7550/e radios in GMRS band (have to use my personal license) - work does not even want to be tied to this project (unless it goes well, then the "brown nosers" will try to say they supported me all along - funny how that works), so doing while on "vacation". But it caught the eye of the Feds. Received their personal invite, as I also tested cameras, which helped result in the Hikvision ban.

For CCR's I do own a lot of them, (purchased to evaluate) which confirms my use of: Motorola, Harris, Thales, and Icom radios instead. The Anytone 878 series is the only CCR I bring along these days to the field.

Such dirty talk in the thread.

The Chinese are busy at the moment making deals with Vietnam and India to manufacture their products..  I'm sure they will do the same with their testing.  Move it out of China into another country but with the same motives doing it in the heart of China.  Pretty soon, you see Baofang made in China and Baofang made in India.
