Tangent: when we bought our Apple II in 1980, the salesperson explained that the "Sup'R'Mod" extra video box we also needed to connect to a TV was sold separately, manufactured by a different company, so that neither needed FCC certification.
I don't know whether this story is true, but it's what we were told.
- wlesieutre 6y agoWikipedia has a page on the Sup'R'Mod and cites this page for the same story with some additional detail: https://apple2history.org/history/ah03/ https://apple2history.org/history/ah03/ (see "Other Design Features" section) That's a funny little piece of computer history.
