Other Enclosure Recommendations:
While we believe that the Ramsey enclosure and knob option is a fine value for
finishing off your Ramsey kit, we're happy to give you an additional suggestion.
If your first goal is economy and rugged portability, you will find that the circuit
board can be mounted nicely in a standard VHS videotape storage box. It will
be necessary to drill some holes for mounting and knob clearance, but a
suitable enclosure will result. These storage boxes come in several sizes, so
pick the one which looks most practical for your application.
APPENDIX A: FCC RULES AND INFORMATION
The Rules of the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) and your kit built
TV Transmitter.
It is the policy of Ramsey Electronics, Inc., that knowing and observing the
lawful use of all kits is a first responsibility of our kit user-builders. We do not
endorse any unlawful use of any of our kits, and we do try to give you as much
common sense help about normal and lawful use as we can. Further, it is the
policy of Ramsey Electronics, Inc., to cooperate with all applicable federal
regulations in the design and marketing of our electronics kit products. Finally,
we urge all of our overseas customers to observe the regulations of their own
national telecommunications authorities. In all instances, compliance with FCC
rules in the operation of what the FCC terms an "intentional radiator" is always
the responsibility of the user of such an "intentional radiator".
To order your copy of FCC rules part 15, call the US Government,
Superintendent of Documents, at 202-512-3238, or fax at 202-512-2250. To
order the correct document, ask for "CFR Title 17: Parts 1 to 19." The cost is
$24.00, Master Card and Visa accepted.
In the United States, this is how the FCC regards your transmitter kit:
Licensed TV broadcast stations and their listeners have ALL the rights! This
means that your non-licensed use of the TV6 kit has no rights whatsoever.
Unlicensed operation of small transmitting devices is discussed in "Part 15" of
the FCC Rules. These Rules are published in 100 "Parts," covering everything
imaginable concerning the topic of "Telecommunications." The six books
containing the FCC Rules are section 47 of the complete Code of Federal
Regulations, which you are likely to find in the Reference section of your Public
Library. If you have questions about the legal operation of your TV6 or any
other kit or home-built device which emits RF energy, it is your responsibility to
study the FCC regulations. It is best if YOU read (and consult with a lawyer if
you are in doubt) the rules and do not bother the understaffed and busy FCC
employees with questions that are clearly answered in the rules.
