Our local club has donated £1000 to the RSGB fund to fight against PLT devices that don't meet the EMC directive. Of course it does raise the issue as to how the rogue units managed to pass the tests in the first place. It has been found that many of the units examined, at one stage had unfilled spaces for filtering and other components. That suggests that they might have been fully populated when they were tested, and then the production units were produced without certain items.
During one of the recent demonstrations at our club. It was found that modern units do seem to be within the specifications of the directives. So maybe we are seeing things turning a corner, and the problem of PLT devices will go away. What happens to the money that people have put into the spectrum defence fund is likely to be used in future battles that we will inevitably face from new 'toys' that come onto the market.
