The information I have is directly from the head of the FCC section
that regulates PCS. I asked the question to some general FCC "help"
e-mail address, and it got kicked upstairs to the PCS boss who
answered me directly.

The computer where that message currently lives is sick right now but
when I get a chance to move that drive to another machine that works,
I'll try to find it and post it here.
