What is this post about?

You posted this once before.

So what is the point of the post? The statement has absolutely nothing to do with use of the camera under normal circumstances.

No comment. I might get another infraction.

I'm confused, too. Do you a question about why the FCC requires cameras to have a certain level of shielding in order to qualify for class B certification (meaning, suitable for general use, as opposed to class A, which is suitable only for use in certain environments), questions about whether your camera has that level of shielding, questions about what the ramifications would be if you were to remove that shielding, or what?

Unless someone has deliberately tampered with the camera, it is a class B device, meaning, suitable for general use.

The only way I can see to interpret this question in light of the title of the thread ("not for selling") is this: in what cases can a certified class B device not be sold. The answer would be, in cases where you have tampered with the device to make it not meet the requirements of a class B device any more. Are you concerned that someone might have done this to a camera you bought? Seems pretty unlikely - what would be your evidence? Or are you contemplating doing this yourself? Don't. Otherwise, again, I don't understand what your are asking.

The OP tried to drum up support for this 'cause' a few weeks ago but failed to stir the masses into revolt. Gary moved that thread to 'General Talk' which is where I have moved this one also.

If discussion drifts off into la-la land it will be closed quickly.

Does that mean we can't start talking about delicious.....

I'm kind of hoping the OP actually follows up and explains what he is asking about, though. I'm guessing he's simply confused about what Class B compliance entails, but I can't even tell what exactly he is confused about. The wording posted is the standard text included by US law on virtually every electronic device sold.

I was just thinking that myself. If he starts another thread with the same subject, I'm going to invoke the 'third strike' rule.

See, that's not the kind of cheese sandwich I am talking about. American style ones usually have the cheese between two slices of bread; a _proper_ cheese sandwich (or as Marc Sabatella would write, *proper*) has one slice of bread topped by one or more cheese slices. I think it's mainly referred to as an "open top" sandwich here.

But if you insist on this layered grilled monstrosity, might I suggest using brie and feta, with a fresh basil leaf in the mix? Perhaps even dip it in a little pesto? (Go lightly, just for a hint of flavor.)

My wife refers to that variety as cheese toast.

MMMM grilled cheese sandwich. None of that nasty brie. French don't make no good cheese.
