Guys:
AMA does NOT test equipment with the idea of "APPROVING" it!  That is what
the FCC is for!  If the equipment meets FCC rules, then AMA does not any
grounds to disallow its usage.  It is a good idea for manufacturers to
contact AMA and let them know what the product is and how it works.  There
is also a standing committee that is comprised of radio manufacturers who
advise AMA about equipment and how it affects the AMA membership.

If equipment is used for other than what the manufacturer recommends, then
it is very probable that the AMA as well as club insurance is void in that
instance.  For example, using a park flier radio in a large model and flying
out of range and crashing...  Just like shooting of pyrotechnics from
models.

I don't know the answer to either question.  Drop a note to Lance Van 
Nostrand and to Jim Rice and ask them.

I think you're right to raise this issue.  If the AMA has not been allowed 
to test it, I would not allow that radio in any way to be used during the 
pattern contest.

Assuming it hasn't been tested, then I think you should advertise that only 
'certified/tested' radios can be used.  It would not be out of line to state

that only radios certified for use with large aircraft will be 
allowed---i.e., no park flyer radios, such as the DX-6.

Howzat?!?

There was some controversy about this person.  Has that cleared?  Has the 
AMA been allowed to test it?

  They have had that website up for some time now.  First I have seen 
pricing and any availability though.
