Our roots run deep in the community of electrical engineering professionals whose primary concern is the regulatory compliance of their companys' products. Our team was the driving force behind our predecessor, Conformity® magazine. When the decision was made to shutter Conformity in March of 2009, our team got together and commited to continue supporting our community.
August 2009 brought the launch of our new publication, IN Compliance Magazine. Our Premiere Issue was released at the IEEE EMC Symposium in Austin, Texas where we were welcomed back by friends and supporters anxious for the informational needs of the compliance community to once again be filled.
Starting with the January 2010 issue, we resume our mission by publishing monthly issues of IN Compliance Magazine, providing the latest industry news on our website www.incompliancemag.com and through semi-monthly eNewsletters.
We are proud to continue supporting our community as their preferred source of regulatory compliance information.

Instructors
Workshop features leading industry experts and ANSI ASC C63® members, including Art Wall (Radio Regulatory Consultants, Inc.)—lead instructor, Mike Windler (UL), Bob Delisi (UL) & Bill Hurst (FCC)--(Note: Instructors may be changed, as required.)
Course Description
This workshop is intended to cover a new standard, ANSI C63.10, containing procedures for testing compliance of a wide variety of unlicensed wireless devices. The new standard (expected to be published this summer) will for the first time have in one place all the reference material needed for performing such tests which are now in a plethora of documents, e.g. FCC Rules, Knowledge Data Base (KDB), rulemaking documents, ANSI C63.4, etc. The devices covered in the standard include: remote control and security transmitters, Frequency Hopping and Digital Communication Spread Spectrum devices, anti-pilferage devices, cordless telephones, wireless medical transmitters, Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure Devices, Intrusion Detectors, Unlicensed Wireless Devices below 30 MHz, Automatic Vehicle Identification Systems and other devices authorized under Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Regulations.
The workshop will be combination of classroom presentations and actual laboratory demonstrations of selected measurements in a semi anechoic chamber using test instrumentation that is needed for such tests. The lab demos are intended to highlight the nuances of making some of the more challenging measurements with emphasizes on the application and practical use of the standard.
