ARLA/CLUSTER: FCC rejeita amplificadores lineares com uma tolerancia de 15dB

FCC rejects amplifier waiver request

The ARRL reports the FCC has denied *Expert Linears*’ request for waiver of
15 dB dB gain restriction on linear amplifiers

Its waiver request, filed in June, would have allowed Expert to import an
amplifier capable of exceeding the current 15 dB gain limitation as it
awaits FCC action on its April petition (RM-11767) to revise the same
Amateur Service rules. That petition remains pending.

Most commenters supported Expert’s waiver request, but a couple of
commenters — including FlexRadio — demurred.

“In light of the conflicting comments regarding the desirability of
eliminating the 15 dB limitation, we conclude that waiving the limitation
at this stage of the rulemaking proceeding would prejudice the rulemaking
proceeding and prematurely dispose of commenters’ concerns,� the FCC said
in denying the waiver. “Moreover, we agree with FlexRadio that granting
Expert’s waiver request while the rulemaking petition remains pending would
provide an unfair market advantage for one equipment model over other
manufacturers’ RF power amplifiers that would still be limited by [the
existing rules].�
