The EMC(LWD included) are tests for CE marking of electrical devices.
Then, it has to be made a clear point if an object requires or not the
omologation to be operated.
If the omologation is required, then a specific procedure referred to
operational parameters (i.e. concerning also to what comes out from the
antenna socket) has to exist and have to be followed and also certified.
The core point for amateur radio is that an omologation procedure is
not applicable to a single amateur that builds his equipment, unless we
drop one of the basical point to justify the amateur radio service.
Stated it, concerning the commercial aspect of industrial products its
questionable and matter of different interpretations if an omologation
is required or not for amateur radio products.
I bet it will be.
